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.
NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate is included for users who must provide certification to ISO, FDA, ANSI or other requirements. Report format and contents comply with NVLAP requirements.
The Gilson OBA-306W Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories seeking accurate and reliable calibration of their balances. As testing methods become more sophisticated and audit standards become stricter, it is crucial for laboratories to have the ability to calibrate their equipment in-house.
This calibration mass is designed specifically for span and linearity calibration of electronic balances. The Span Calibration method involves using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, such as zero, center, and full span, in order to minimize deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance. The versatility of this mass allows for precise calibration in a variety of situations.
Constructed with ASTM Class 1 specifications, these masses are made of highly polished stainless steel. For easier handling and stacking, the 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles. Additionally, each individual weight, ranging from 10g to 4,000g, comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. This ensures the longevity of the mass and provides convenience for transportation and storage.
The ASTM Class 1 calibration masses are specifically designed for use with analytical balances and applications that require first-order accuracy. They are built to meet the highest industry standards, ensuring utmost precision in weighing measurements.
Furthermore, the Gilson OBA-306W Calibration Mass includes an NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate. This certificate is a crucial component for users who need to provide certification to ISO, FDA, ANSI, or other regulatory requirements. The report format and contents fully comply with NVLAP standards, guaranteeing accuracy and credibility for your calibration process.
Overall, the Gilson OBA-306W Calibration Mass is an indispensable tool for laboratories seeking accurate and reliable calibration of their balances. With its ASTM Class 1 construction, versatile calibration methods, and included NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate, this product provides peace of mind and ensures compliance with industry standards.
