With more sophisticated testing and more frequent auditing of laboratory equipment, it has become increasingly necessary for laboratories to calibrate their own balances. Calibration Masses are offered to check span and linearity and calibrate electronic balances. The commonly used Span Calibration method uses one-point calibration with a single mass approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. Some balances use the Linearity Calibration method which allows the user to select multiple mass settings, normally defined as zero, center (half span), and full span of the balances capacity. This method minimizes deviation throughout the balance's weighing range.
ASTM Class 1 masses are highly polished stainless steel. Recessed grip handles are part of the 10kg and 20kg weights for easier handling and stacking. Individual weights from 10—4,000g include a glove and protective, foam-lined plastic case.
ASTM Class 1 masses are perfect for analytical balances and applications requiring first-order accuracy.
The Gilson OBA-310 Calibration Mass, ASTM Class 1, 1000g, is the ideal product for laboratories in need of accurate calibration. With stricter testing and auditing requirements, it has become essential for laboratories to have the capability to calibrate their own balances. That's where the Gilson OBA-310 comes in.
This calibration mass is specifically designed for checking span and linearity, as well as calibrating electronic balances. It is commonly used in the Span Calibration method, which involves a one-point calibration using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. Additionally, it is compatible with the Linearity Calibration method, allowing the user to select multiple mass settings, such as zero, center (half span), and full span of the balance's capacity. This method ensures minimal deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance.
The Gilson OBA-310 is made of highly polished stainless steel, meeting the strict ASTM Class 1 standards. This ensures excellent durability, accuracy, and longevity. The 10kg and 20kg weights have recessed grip handles, making them easier to handle and stack. This feature not only provides convenience but also enhances the overall efficiency of the calibration process.
For added safety and protection, each individual weight from 10g to 4,000g comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. This ensures that the weights remain in perfect condition, free from any contaminants or scratches that may affect their accuracy.
The ASTM Class 1 classification of these masses makes them ideal for use in analytical balances and applications that require first-order accuracy. The precision and reliability of the Gilson OBA-310 Calibration Mass, ASTM Class 1, 1000g, make it the go-to choice for laboratories seeking accurate and dependable calibration. Don't compromise on the quality of your calibration - trust Gilson's OBA-310 to ensure the utmost accuracy in your lab's measurements.
