Description
Test weight KERN 338-08 is a milligram calibration weight of accuracy class F2 with a nominal mass of 200 mg. Manufactured as a polished stainless-steel leaf (plättchen) in accordance with OIML requirements, it provides a compact, durable reference mass for verification and adjustment of precision balances. The leaf geometry is well suited to the small 200 mg nominal value, allowing secure handling during routine laboratory calibration work. This single-piece weight from manufacturer Kern supports metrological tasks that demand class F2 performance in the milligram range. Polished stainless steel construction ensures a stable surface finish appropriate for repeated use under controlled weighing conditions. With a nominal weight of 0,0002 kg, the piece integrates readily into existing weight sets and calibration protocols. It is intended for laboratories requiring traceable check weights for balance testing and quality assurance of weighing equipment.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Test Weight KERN 338-08
What is this article?
Test Weight KERN 338-08 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern 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.
