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-305 Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories that require accurate calibration of their balances. As testing becomes more sophisticated and audits become more frequent, it is crucial for laboratories to be able to calibrate their own equipment.
This calibration mass is specifically designed to check the span and linearity of electronic balances. It offers two commonly used calibration methods: the Span Calibration and the Linearity Calibration. The Span Calibration method uses a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, while the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the balance's weighing range.
The Gilson OBA-305 Calibration Mass is made of highly polished stainless steel, ensuring durability and accuracy. The ASTM Class 1 classification guarantees first-order accuracy, making it perfect for analytical balances and applications that require precision.
The 100g calibration mass is part of a comprehensive set of weights ranging from 10g to 4,000g. The larger weights, such as the 10kg and 20kg, come with recessed grip handles for easier handling and stacking. Each individual weight from 10g to 4,000g is accompanied by a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case, ensuring their safe storage and transportation.
With the Gilson OBA-305 Calibration Mass, laboratories can rely on accurate and precise calibration of their balances. Its high-quality stainless steel construction, along with the ASTM Class 1 classification, guarantees first-order accuracy. Whether it is for analytical balances or applications that demand precise measurements, this calibration mass is the perfect choice for laboratories looking to ensure the integrity and reliability of their weighing equipment.
