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 4 weights are satin-finished 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 4 weights are perfect for most balances less sensitive than 0.01g and applications having average accuracy requirements.
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-401W Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories in need of precise and accurate weight calibration. As testing procedures become more sophisticated and laboratory auditing becomes more frequent, it has become increasingly necessary for laboratories to have the capability to calibrate their own balances.
This calibration mass is specifically designed to check span and linearity and calibrate electronic balances. It offers two commonly used calibration methods: the Span Calibration method and the Linearity Calibration method. 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.
Crafted with precision and high-quality materials, the Gilson OBA-401W Calibration Mass is an ASTM Class 4 weight made of satin-finished stainless steel. The 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles for easier handling and stacking. Each individual weight, ranging from 10g to 4,000g, comes with a convenient glove and a protective foam-lined plastic case to ensure its longevity and safe storage.
The ASTM Class 4 weights are ideal for balances that are less sensitive than 0.01g and for applications that have average accuracy requirements. Whether you are working in a laboratory, research facility, or any other environment that demands precise measurements, this calibration mass is a reliable and effective tool to ensure the accuracy of your balances.
To provide peace of mind to users who need to meet specific certification requirements, the Gilson OBA-401W Calibration Mass includes an NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate. This certificate ensures compliance with ISO, FDA, ANSI, and other relevant certifications. The report format and contents of the certificate fully adhere to NVLAP requirements, giving you confidence in the accuracy and reliability of your weight calibration.
In conclusion, the Gilson OBA-401W Calibration Mass is the perfect solution for laboratories seeking to calibrate their balances with precision and accuracy. With its high-quality construction, convenient features, and included NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate, this calibration mass is a valuable asset for any laboratory or research facility that requires reliable weight calibration.
