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-209T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 500g, Traceable is a must-have for laboratories that require accurate and precise calibration of their balances. As testing becomes more sophisticated and auditing of lab equipment becomes more frequent, it is essential for laboratories to have the means to calibrate their own balances.
This calibration mass is specifically designed for calibrating electronic balances and checking span and linearity. The Span Calibration method, which is commonly used, involves using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance. On the other hand, some balances utilize the Linearity Calibration method, which allows the user to select multiple mass settings to minimize deviation throughout the balance's weighing range.
What sets the Gilson OBA-209T apart is its Ultra Class designation. These weights have weight tolerances that are 40-50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and are equal to or surpass OIML Class E2. Made from highly polished stainless steel, the Ultra Class masses not only guarantee superior accuracy but also offer durability and longevity. The 10kg and 20kg weights even come with recessed grip handles for easier handling and stacking.
Whether you're working with analytical balances or sensitive applications that demand exceptional accuracy, the Ultra Class weights are the perfect choice. Each weight from 10g to 4,000g comes with a glove and protective, foam-lined plastic case for convenient storage and transportation.
To ensure complete traceability and compliance, the Gilson OBA-209T Calibration Mass includes a Traceable Certificate. This certificate documents 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.
When it comes to calibrating your laboratory balances, trust the Gilson OBA-209T Calibration Mass, Ultra Class, 500g, Traceable for precise and reliable results. With its exceptional tolerance, durable construction, and comprehensive traceable certificate, this product is the ideal choice for laboratories aiming for accuracy and compliance.
