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-211 Calibration Mass in the Ultra Class is a top-of-the-line product designed to meet the increasing demand for more accurate calibration of laboratory equipment. In today's highly sophisticated testing and auditing environment, laboratories need to ensure that their balances are calibrated to the highest standards. This calibration mass is specifically designed to help achieve that goal.
The calibration masses are essential for checking the span and linearity of electronic balances and calibrating them accordingly. There are two commonly used calibration methods: the Span Calibration method and the Linearity Calibration method. The Span Calibration method involves using a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, while the Linearity Calibration method allows the user to select multiple mass settings, minimizing deviation throughout the balance's weighing range.
The Ultra Class weights offered by the Gilson OBA-211 Calibration Mass are known for their exceptional accuracy. In fact, these weights boast weight tolerances that are 40-50% tighter than ASTM Class 1 and are equal to or even exceed OIML Class E2. They are made of highly polished stainless steel, ensuring their durability and longevity.
For easier handling and stacking, the 10kg and 20kg weights are equipped with recessed grip handles. Additionally, each individual weight from 10g to 4,000g comes with a glove and a protective, foam-lined plastic case. This ensures that the weights are well-protected during storage and transportation.
The Ultra Class weights are particularly suitable for analytical and sensitive balances, as well as for applications that demand the highest level of accuracy. In an era where precision and reliability are paramount, the Gilson OBA-211 Calibration Mass in the Ultra Class is the ideal choice for laboratories seeking to maintain the utmost accuracy in their measurements. With its superior quality and attention to detail, this product guarantees precise and consistent results, enabling laboratories to meet the most stringent industry standards.
