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 Gilson OBA-205 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 100g is the ideal choice for laboratories looking to calibrate their own balances with precision and accuracy. As testing and auditing of laboratory equipment become more sophisticated, it is crucial to have reliable calibration masses for the task.
This calibration mass is specifically designed for span and linearity calibration of electronic balances. The widely used Span Calibration method involves a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows users to select multiple mass settings, including zero, center (half span), and full span, resulting in minimal deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance.
What sets the Gilson OBA-205 Calibration Mass apart is its Ultra Class designation, which guarantees weight tolerances that are 40–50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and equal to or exceeding OIML Class E2 standards. These highly polished stainless steel masses are built to deliver superior accuracy, making them perfect for analytical and sensitive balances.
The Ultra Class weights also feature recessed grip handles, specifically for the 10kg and 20kg weights, making them easier to handle and stack. Additionally, each individual weight from 10–4,000g comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case, ensuring their longevity and protection.
Whether you are in a laboratory setting or any application that demands precise calibration, the Gilson OBA-205 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 100g will be your reliable companion. Trust in Gilson's commitment to quality and accuracy in your calibration process, and enhance the reliability and credibility of your laboratory measurements.
