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-201T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10g, Traceable, is the perfect solution for laboratories looking to calibrate their own balances. With more sophisticated testing and auditing requirements, it has become essential for laboratories to have reliable calibration masses that can check span and linearity and calibrate electronic balances.
When it comes to calibration, the Gilson OBA-201T utilizes both the Span Calibration and Linearity Calibration methods. The Span Calibration method uses a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, ensuring accurate measurements throughout the balance's weighing range. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviations across the balance's capacity.
What sets the Gilson OBA-201T apart from other calibration masses is its Ultra Class designation. These weights have weight tolerances 40—50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and meet or exceed OIML Class E2 standards. Made from highly polished stainless steel, these Ultra Class weights are not only accurate but also durable. The 10kg and 20kg weights also feature recessed grip handles, making them easier to handle and stack.
The set includes individual weights ranging from 10—4,000g, ensuring that there is a weight for every calibration need. Each weight comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case to keep them safe during storage and transportation.
For laboratories dealing with analytical and sensitive balances, the Gilson OBA-201T is the go-to choice. These weights offer superior accuracy, making them perfect for applications that demand the utmost precision.
To ensure the highest level of traceability and compliance, the Gilson OBA-201T comes with a Traceable Certificate. This certificate documents the weight's traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and compliance with either ASTM or OIML specifications. It includes essential information such as the nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name, and purchase order number.
In summary, the Gilson OBA-201T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10g, Traceable, is a reliable and accurate solution for laboratories in need of calibration weights. With its Ultra Class designation, it guarantees superior precision and is suitable for a wide range of applications. The included Traceable Certificate ensures traceability and compliance with industry standards, making it an excellent choice for any laboratory.
