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-406W Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories in need of precise balance calibration. As testing methods become more advanced and laboratories undergo frequent audits, it has become a necessity for these facilities to have reliable calibration equipment on hand.
Designed to check span and linearity and calibrate electronic balances, this calibration mass offers accuracy and reliability. The commonly used Span Calibration method utilizes a single mass that is approximately the same as the capacity of the balance, allowing for quick and efficient calibration. Some balances may also use the Linearity Calibration method, which allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the weighing range.
Constructed with ASTM Class 4 weights, the Gilson OBA-406W Calibration Mass ensures durability and longevity. The satin-finished stainless steel weights provide a professional and sleek appearance. The 10kg and 20kg weights also come with recessed grip handles for ease of handling and stacking.
Each individual weight, ranging from 10 to 4,000g, includes a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case to ensure proper storage and protection during use.
The ASTM Class 4 weights are suitable for most balances that are less sensitive than 0.01g and are ideal for applications with average accuracy requirements. Whether you are working in a laboratory or any other setting that requires precise measurements, these calibration masses are a reliable choice.
Additionally, the Gilson OBA-406W Calibration Mass includes an NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate for users who need to provide certification to ISO, FDA, ANSI, or other regulatory requirements. The certificate complies with NVLAP standards and ensures the accuracy and traceability of your measurements.
For laboratories and other settings that demand accuracy and reliability in balance calibration, the Gilson OBA-406W Calibration Mass is the perfect choice. It provides the necessary tools and certification to meet strict industry standards, making it an essential addition to any measuring equipment collection.
