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.
Ultra Class weights boast weight tolerances 40—50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and equal to or exceeding OIML Class E2. Ultra Class masses are highly polished 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.
Ultra Class weights are perfect for analytical and sensitive balances and applications that demand superior accuracy.
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-205T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 100g, Traceable is a top-of-the-line calibration weight designed for laboratories in need of precise and accurate measurements. With the increasing need for sophisticated testing and frequent audits, it has become essential for laboratories to have the ability to calibrate their own balances.
This calibration mass is specifically designed for checking span and linearity, as well as calibrating electronic balances. It offers two commonly used calibration methods - the Span Calibration method and the Linearity Calibration method. The Span Calibration method uses a single mass that is approximately equal to the balance's capacity, while the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings to minimize deviation throughout the weighing range.
What sets the Gilson OBA-205T apart from other calibration weights is its Ultra Class designation. These weights have weight tolerances that are 40-50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and are equal to or even exceed OIML Class E2 specifications. Made from highly polished stainless steel, Ultra Class weights are durable and built to last. The 10kg and 20kg weights even come with recessed grip handles for easier handling and stacking.
This calibration mass range includes individual weights ranging from 10g to 4,000g, each packaged in a protective, foam-lined plastic case along with a glove for added protection during handling. The Ultra Class weights are perfect for analytical and sensitive balances, as well as applications that demand superior accuracy.
To ensure the highest level of quality and traceability, the Gilson OBA-205T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 100g, Traceable comes with a Traceable Certificate. This certificate documents traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and confirms compliance with either ASTM or OIML specifications. It includes key information such as the nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, as well as the customer's name and purchase order number.
In summary, the Gilson OBA-205T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 100g, Traceable is the ultimate choice for laboratories that require precise calibration for their balances. With its Ultra Class designation, it offers superior accuracy and tight weight tolerances, making it the go-to product for demanding applications. The included Traceable Certificate ensures traceability and compliance with industry standards, giving laboratories the confidence they need in their measurements.
