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-201 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10g is a high-quality product designed for laboratories in need of precise calibration. As testing becomes more sophisticated and auditing of equipment becomes more frequent, it is essential for laboratories to have reliable calibration tools.
This calibration mass is specifically designed to check the span and linearity of electronic balances. The commonly used Span Calibration method utilizes a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the weighing range.
What sets the Gilson OBA-201 apart is its Ultra Class weight classification, offering weight tolerances that are 40-50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and equal to or exceeding OIML Class E2. This ensures superior accuracy and reliability in the calibration process. The weights are made of highly polished stainless steel, which not only enhances their appearance but also contributes to their durability and longevity.
For convenient handling and stacking, the 10kg and 20kg weights feature recessed grip handles. Additionally, the package includes individual weights ranging from 10g to 4,000g, each accompanied by a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. These accessories provide an added layer of protection for the weights, ensuring their longevity and accuracy.
The Gilson OBA-201 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10g is ideal for analytical and sensitive balances as well as applications that demand superior accuracy. With its precise tolerances and durable construction, this calibration mass is a reliable investment for any laboratory in need of accurate calibrations.
