Description
E2 individual weight is a precision test mass for calibration, adjustment and verification work on laboratory and industrial balances. It forms part of the E2 individual-weight range from 1 g to 50 kg and is manufactured from special steel that is high-gloss polished, non-magnetizable and highly corrosion-resistant, with a density of 8,0 g/cm³. These properties support stable mass values, low magnetic influence and dependable long-term handling in metrology environments. According to size, pieces up to 20 g are supplied in a plastic box, while weights from 50 g are presented in a wooden case for secure storage and transport. Offered as 1 pc with a net weight of 20,000 kg, this calibration weight from manufacturer Sartorius suits routine quality-control checks, balance verification and reference use where E2-class performance and robust special-steel construction are required. The polished, non-magnetizable surface aids cleaning and reduces susceptibility-related weighing errors, making the piece a practical choice for demanding test-weight applications across analytical and production laboratories.
This article is part of Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Knob Weight 20 kg, OIML E2, DAkkS
What is this article?
Knob Weight 20 kg, OIML E2, DAkkS is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
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.
