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-408W Calibration Mass is a must-have tool for laboratories in need of precise calibration for their balances. As testing methods and auditing procedures become more sophisticated, it is essential for laboratories to be able to calibrate their own equipment accurately. This calibration mass is specifically designed to meet the needs of modern laboratories.
The Span Calibration method is commonly used in this process, where a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance is used for calibration. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows users to select multiple mass settings, including the zero, center, and full span of the balance's capacity. This method ensures minimal deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance.
The Gilson OBA-408W Calibration Mass is made of satin-finished stainless steel, which makes it durable and long-lasting. The weights are carefully designed with recessed grip handles, particularly for the 10kg and 20kg weights, making them easier to handle and stack. Additionally, each individual weight from 10g to 4,000g comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case, ensuring safe storage and transportation.
Perfect for balances that are less sensitive than 0.01g and applications with average accuracy requirements, the ASTM Class 4 weights are an ideal choice. These weights are not only reliable and accurate, but they also come with an NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate. This certificate is crucial for users who must provide certification to ISO, FDA, ANSI, or other regulatory requirements. The report format and content fully comply with the NVLAP requirements, ensuring that your calibration process meets the highest standards.
In conclusion, the Gilson OBA-408W Calibration Mass is a high-quality product that meets the demands of modern laboratories. With its durable construction, recessed grip handles, and included protective case, this ASTM Class 4 weight set provides accurate calibration for balances, ensuring reliable and precise measurements. The NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate adds an extra layer of credibility, making it the perfect choice for laboratories that require certification to meet various industry standards.
