Calibration Weights

Product Description

FAQ

1. What are calibration weights?

Ans - Calibration weights are used to measure and adjust the accuracy of weighing instruments such as scales, balances, and force gauges. They are typically made from stainless steel and are available in a variety of sizes and shapes.

2. How do calibration weights work?

Ans - Calibration weights are placed on a weighing instrument and the instrument is adjusted until it reads the exact weight of the calibration weight. This ensures that the instrument reads the correct weight, even when it is measuring the weight of other objects.

3. What are the different types of calibration weights?

Ans - Calibration weights come in a variety of sizes and shapes. For example, there are metric weights, avoirdupois weights, and troy weights. Additionally, calibration weights are available in sets of various weight classes, such as 1g, 5g, 10g, 20g, 50g, 100g, 200g, 500g, 1kg, 2kg, 5kg, and 10kg.

4. How often should calibration weights be used?

Ans - Calibration weights should be used every 6 months or after any repairs or maintenance on the instrument. Additionally, calibration weights should be used on any new weighing instrument before it is put into use.

Precision Engineered for Reliable Calibration

Manufactured to strict tolerances, these calibration weights guarantee exceptional precision for reference and testing weighing scales. Their stainless steel construction provides both durability and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for repeated use in demanding laboratory and industrial settings. Available in a variety of sizes and classes, each weight ensures the accuracy necessary for mass comparison and calibration applications. Their non-magnetic nature further enhances measurement reliability.


Certified to International and National Standards

All weights comply with OIML R111-1 specifications and can be supplied with calibration certificates traceable to NABL and ISO 17025 standards. This ensures that each weight meets stringent requirements for accuracy and reliability in professional environments. With traceable documentation, users can maintain confidence and auditability in their measurement and quality control processes.


Safe Packaging and Optimal Storage

To preserve their accuracy and surface integrity, every weight is carefully packed in a protective box or a velvet-lined case. These storage solutions shield against dust, scratches, and environmental changes. For best performance and longevity, it is recommended to store the weights in a dry place, away from humidity and contaminants, ensuring they remain in optimal condition for each calibration cycle.
