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-311 Calibration Mass, ASTM Class 1, 2000g, is the perfect solution for laboratories in need of accurate and reliable calibration weights. As laboratories are continuously required to conduct more sophisticated testing and undergo frequent audits, it has become essential to calibrate their own balances.
Calibration Masses are essential tools used to check and calibrate electronic balances, ensuring precise measurements. The Span Calibration method, commonly used in many balances, involves calibrating the balance with a single mass that is approximately equal to the balance's capacity. On the other hand, some balances employ the Linearity Calibration method, which allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance.
The Gilson OBA-311 is made of highly polished stainless steel, adhering to the strict standards set by the ASTM Class 1 designation. This guarantees the highest level of accuracy and reliability needed for analytical balances and applications requiring first-order accuracy. Additionally, the 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles, making them easier to handle and stack, ensuring efficiency in the laboratory setting.
To provide utmost convenience and protection, individual weights ranging from 10g to 4,000g are supplied with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. This ensures that the calibration masses remain in pristine condition, ready for use and protected from any potential damages.
The Gilson OBA-311 Calibration Mass, ASTM Class 1, 2000g, is an essential tool for laboratories seeking accurate calibration weights. Featuring superior craftsmanship and adhering to the highest industry standards, these masses are the ideal choice for laboratories that demand precise measurements for their analytical balances and applications requiring first-order accuracy. With the added convenience and protection provided by the included glove and foam-lined plastic case, the Gilson OBA-311 Calibration Mass ensures both accuracy and longevity in the laboratory environment.
