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-214 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10kg is a highly accurate and reliable product designed to meet the stringent calibration demands of modern laboratories. With the increasing need for precise testing and regular auditing of laboratory equipment, it has become essential for laboratories to have the ability to calibrate their own balances. This calibration mass is the perfect solution for achieving accurate and reliable results.
The commonly used Span Calibration method is efficiently performed using the Gilson OBA-214 Calibration Mass. By using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, users can effectively check span and linearity, ensuring optimal performance. Additionally, for balances that use the Linearity Calibration method, this calibration mass allows for the selection of multiple mass settings, enabling calibration at zero, center (half span), and full span of the balance's capacity. This comprehensive method helps to minimize deviation throughout the weighing range of the balance, ensuring accurate and reliable measurements.
One of the key features of the Gilson OBA-214 Calibration Mass is its Ultra Class designation. These weights offer weight tolerances that are 40-50% tighter than ASTM Class 1, surpassing industry standards. Furthermore, the weights are made of highly polished stainless steel, providing exceptional durability and longevity. The 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles, allowing for easier handling and stacking, enhancing convenience and efficiency in the laboratory.
To further enhance the usability and protection of the weights, each individual weight from 10-4,000g is packaged with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. This ensures that the weights are protected from any potential damage during transportation and storage, while also providing a safe and clean handling experience.
The Gilson OBA-214 Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 10kg is specifically designed for analytical and sensitive balances, as well as applications that demand superior accuracy. With its exceptional accuracy, durability, and comprehensive calibration capabilities, this calibration mass is an essential tool for any modern laboratory seeking precise and reliable measurements.
