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 included Traceable Certificate documents traceability to NIST and compliance with ASTM or OIML specifications. The Traceable Certificate includes nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name and purchase order number.
The Gilson OBA-305T Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories that require accurate calibration of their balances. As testing becomes more sophisticated and audits more frequent, it is imperative to have reliable calibration equipment at hand.
Designed for use with electronic balances, these calibration masses are vital for checking span and linearity, ensuring precise measurements. The commonly used Span Calibration method involves using a single mass that is approximately equal to the balance's capacity. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows for multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the weighing range.
Crafted from highly polished stainless steel, the ASTM Class 1 masses guarantee exceptional quality and durability. The 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles, facilitating easier handling and stacking. Additionally, each individual weight from 10g to 4,000g comes with a protective, foam-lined plastic case and a glove to ensure safe storage and handling.
These ASTM Class 1 masses are particularly well-suited for analytical balances and other applications that require first-order accuracy. No matter the precision needed, these calibration masses deliver reliable and consistent results.
To add another layer of credibility, the Gilson OBA-305T Calibration Mass comes with a Traceable Certificate. This certificate documents the mass's traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and its compliance with ASTM or OIML specifications. The Traceable Certificate includes important information such as the nominal value, correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name, and purchase order number, allowing for easy record-keeping and traceability for audits and inspections.
In conclusion, the Gilson OBA-305T Calibration Mass is a must-have for laboratories seeking accurate and reliable calibration of their balances. With its high-quality construction, extensive range of weights, and comprehensive Traceable Certificate, this product is the perfect solution for laboratories striving to maintain the utmost precision in their measurements.
