Abstract

A gravimetric measuring system (10) includes a balance (12) with a weighing chamber (22), surrounded by a plurality of weighing chamber walls (23, 24, 26, 28); an electromechanical weighing system (181); and an electronic control apparatus (36) controlling the system operation according to routines stored in a memory (363) thereof; and a plurality of functional modules (14, 16), configured to be inserted into module receptacles, arranged on at least one weighing chamber wall (28). The at least one weighing chamber wall (28) is designed as a carrier structure, with recesses (283) which constitute clearances occupying a majority of the wall surface and which form the module receptacles. Either the functional modules (14, 16) or diaphragms (15) without a weighing function close the recesses and are spatially adapted to the recesses.
