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.
NIST Class F Calibration Masses are available for higher capacity balances and scales. Fabricated of cast iron with integral grip handles.
NIST Class F weights are perfect for higher capacity, less sensitive balances and scales.
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-291T Calibration Mass is a top-quality calibration weight designed specifically for laboratory use. With the increasing need for accurate calibration in laboratories, this product offers a reliable solution for checking span and linearity and calibrating electronic balances.
The OBA-291T provides versatility in its calibration methods, allowing you to choose between the Span Calibration method and the Linearity Calibration method. The Span Calibration method utilizes a single mass that is approximately equal to the capacity of the balance, ensuring accurate results. On the other hand, the Linearity Calibration method enables you to select multiple mass settings, including zero, center (half span), and full span, to minimize deviation across the balance's weighing range.
Built to meet the highest standards of quality, this calibration mass belongs to the NIST Class F category, making it suitable for use with higher capacity balances and scales. Crafted from durable cast iron, it features integral grip handles for easy and secure handling during calibration procedures.
To provide assurance of its accuracy and compliance, the Gilson OBA-291T Calibration Mass comes with a Traceable Certificate. This certificate documents the weight's traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and ensures compliance with ASTM or OIML specifications. The certificate includes essential information such as the nominal value and correction, date of calibration, accuracy class, customer name, and purchase order number.
With the Gilson OBA-291T Calibration Mass, laboratories can now perform precise and reliable calibrations on their electronic balances with ease. Whether you choose the Span Calibration method or the Linearity Calibration method, this product is the ideal choice for maintaining accuracy and compliance in your laboratory equipment. Trust in Gilson's commitment to quality and invest in the OBA-291T Calibration Mass for all your calibration needs.
