Description
Block weight 1000 kg is a class M1 single test weight designed for high-capacity calibration and verification of industrial scales and heavy-duty weighing systems. Its solid block format provides a large, stable reference mass for metrology tasks in laboratories, warehouses and production facilities that require OIML M1 accuracy. The body is made of grey cast iron with a black painted finish for durable surface protection during transport, storage and repeated handling. This weight belongs to the M1 single-weight range from 100 kg to 1000 kg available from manufacturer Sartorius, representing the upper end of that series. Specified net mass is 1000 kg, with a gross weight of 1020 kg to support accurate shipping and installation planning. Delivered as a single piece, it is suited to quality-assurance teams, service technicians and calibration routines that must confirm scale performance at full load. The cast construction and lacquered coating help maintain a robust reference standard for ongoing process control in demanding weighing applications.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Block weight, 1000kg, M1, handle, DKD
What is this article?
Block weight, 1000kg, M1, handle, DKD is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Calibration & test weights, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A test weight is a mass of a stated class, used to check a balance. The class sets the tolerance. A weight that is dirty, or that has been handled with bare fingers, is no longer that class. The certificate ties the weight to a standard.
A balance compares a mass with a standard. An analytical balance reads to 0.1 mg or finer and needs a draft shield and a stable bench. A precision balance is coarser and faster. A platform scale takes a heavier load. The reading is only as good as the calibration chain back to the kilogram, which is why test weights and a certificate exist. A moisture analyser is a balance with a heater: it records the loss of mass as water leaves. The unit of mass is kept by the BIPM, compared across Europe by EURAMET, and accredited by BELAC. NIST publishes the same measurement foundations.
