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.
NIST Class F Calibration Masses are available for higher capacity balances and scales. Fabricated of cast iron with integral grip handles.
NIST Class F weights are perfect for higher capacity, less sensitive balances and scales.
The Gilson OBA-282 Calibration Mass is a high-quality product designed specifically for laboratories in need of reliable calibration equipment. As testing becomes more sophisticated and auditing becomes more frequent, it has become increasingly important for laboratories to perform their own balance calibrations. That is where the Gilson OBA-282 Calibration Mass comes in.
This NIST Class F Calibration Mass is perfect for higher capacity balances and scales. Made from cast iron with integral grip handles, it is both durable and easy to handle. NIST Class F weights are designed to be used with higher capacity, less sensitive balances and scales, making them an ideal choice for laboratories with specific needs.
One of the key benefits of the Gilson OBA-282 Calibration Mass is its versatility. With the Span Calibration method, users can perform a one-point calibration using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. This method allows for a quick and efficient calibration process, ensuring accurate measurements throughout the weighing range.
Alternatively, the Linearity Calibration method is available for balances that allow the user to select multiple mass settings. This method is especially useful for minimizing deviation throughout the balance's weighing range, providing even more precise measurements.
The Gilson OBA-282 Calibration Mass is designed to meet the highest standards of quality and accuracy. As an NIST Class F weight, it undergoes rigorous testing to ensure its reliability and precision. With the integral grip handles, it is easy to handle and manipulate during the calibration process.
In conclusion, the Gilson OBA-282 Calibration Mass is the perfect solution for laboratories in need of reliable and accurate calibration equipment. With its versatility, durability, and NIST Class F certification, it is a product that can be trusted to provide precise measurements and ensure the proper functioning of laboratory balances and scales.
