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 included Traceable Certificate documents traceability to NIST and compliance with ASTM or OIML specifications. The Traceable Certificate includes nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name and purchase order number.
The Gilson OBA-286T Calibration Mass, NIST Class F, 25kg, Traceable is the perfect tool for laboratories that need to calibrate their own balances. With the increasing need for more sophisticated testing and frequent auditing of laboratory equipment, it is essential to have reliable calibration masses on hand.
This calibration mass is specifically designed to check span and linearity and calibrate electronic balances. It offers two commonly used calibration methods - Span Calibration and Linearity Calibration. The Span Calibration method uses a single mass approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, while the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviations throughout the weighing range.
NIST Class F Calibration Masses are known for their superior quality and are suitable for higher capacity balances and scales. Made of cast iron with integral grip handles, these weights are durable and easy to handle.
One of the key features of the Gilson OBA-286T Calibration Mass is the included Traceable Certificate. This certificate provides documentation of traceability to NIST and compliance with ASTM or OIML specifications. It includes important information such as the nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name, and purchase order number. With this certificate, you can have full confidence in the accuracy and reliability of your calibrations.
Whether you are a laboratory performing routine calibrations or a facility that requires precise measurements, the Gilson OBA-286T Calibration Mass is a must-have tool. Its high-quality construction, compatibility with higher capacity balances, and included Traceable Certificate make it an essential instrument for any laboratory or facility that values accuracy and precision.
