This is the Arca 2000, it's the biggest letter scale of the Arca series, except one. A special feature of this letter scale is that the range is switchable between 125 grams and 2000 grams. The switch can be reached at the top of the scale housing. Pulling the switch out, results in weighing in the range of 2000 grams. Turning the switch a quarter, and lowering it into the housing, gives weighing in the range of 125 grams. In this range each gram has a stripe on the chart. At the chart of 2000 grams after the 100 grams a stripe per 50 grams is given. At the back is stamped: NIET VOOR HANDELSDOELEINDEN. This is Dutch meaning: not legal for trade. The bottom is finished with a cardboard layer with a soft foam end surface. Below some more pictures of this firm switchable letter scale of Jakob Maul.
