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-404W Calibration Mass is an essential tool for laboratories that require accurate calibration of their balances. With the increasing need for sophisticated testing and frequent auditing, it has become imperative for laboratories to have their own calibration equipment.
This calibration mass is designed to check span and linearity while calibrating electronic balances. It is commonly used in the Span Calibration method, which involves a one-point calibration using a single mass that is approximately equal to the balance's capacity. Additionally, it can be used in the Linearity Calibration method, which allows the user to select multiple mass settings such as zero, center (half span), and full span of the balance's capacity. This method ensures minimal deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance.
The Gilson OBA-404W Calibration Mass is made from satin-finished stainless steel and belongs to the ASTM Class 4 weights category. This classification ensures high quality and reliability. The 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles, making them easier to handle and stack. Individual weights from 10—4,000g come with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case to ensure their longevity and proper storage.
These ASTM Class 4 weights are ideal for balances that are less sensitive than 0.01g and for applications that have average accuracy requirements. They provide accurate and precise calibration, ensuring reliable measurements.
Furthermore, the Gilson OBA-404W Calibration Mass comes with an NVLAP Weight Calibration Certificate. This certificate is essential for users who need to provide certification to ISO, FDA, ANSI, or other regulatory requirements. The report format and contents of the certificate fully comply with NVLAP standards, guaranteeing the accuracy and traceability of the calibration process.
In conclusion, the Gilson OBA-404W Calibration Mass is a trusted and high-quality product that allows laboratories to perform accurate and reliable calibration of their balances. It offers convenience, durability, and compliance with industry standards, making it an essential tool for any laboratory requiring precise measurements.
