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.
The Gilson OBA-416 Calibration Mass Set, ASTM Class 4, is the perfect solution for laboratories looking to calibrate their own balances. As testing and auditing become more sophisticated, it is crucial for laboratories to ensure the accuracy and reliability of their equipment.
The Calibration Masses in this set are designed to check span and linearity, allowing users to calibrate their electronic balances with ease. The set includes a range of weights, from 1mg to 100g, to cover a wide variety of calibration needs.
The commonly used Span Calibration method utilizes a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. This method ensures that the balance remains accurate throughout its weighing capacity. Additionally, some balances utilize the Linearity Calibration method which allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation and ensuring accurate measurements.
The weights in this set are made from satin-finished stainless steel, meeting the standards of ASTM Class 4. This ensures their quality and durability for long-term use. The 10kg and 20kg weights even feature recessed grip handles for easier handling and stacking.
To provide maximum protection and convenience, individual weights from 10-4,000g come with a glove and a foam-lined plastic case. This ensures that the weights remain in pristine condition and are easily stored when not in use.
The ASTM Class 4 weights in this set are ideal for balances that are less sensitive than 0.01g and for applications with average accuracy requirements. They provide reliable and accurate results, making them a valuable addition to any laboratory.
Invest in the Gilson OBA-416 Calibration Mass Set, ASTM Class 4, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of your laboratory balances. With its comprehensive range of weights and high-quality construction, this set is a must-have for any laboratory looking to perform regular calibration and maintain accurate measurements.
