Description
Calibration weight 2 kg OIML class M3 is an individual scale calibration weight designed for the verification and adjustment of balances and industrial weighing instruments. This certified reference mass conforms to the OIML M3 accuracy class and is fabricated from stainless steel. Weights in the 1 g to 10 kg range are made of stainless steel and delivered in a protective case that guards the surface finish during transport and storage. With a nominal mass of 2 kg, the weight is well suited to routine calibration work in laboratories, production environments and quality-assurance settings. Manufactured by Ohaus, it provides durable construction for repeated metrological use. Gross and net weight are both stated as 2,358 kg. The product originates from Switzerland and supports calibration procedures that require an M3-class reference mass. It serves solely as a physical standard without any display devices. The protective sleeve helps maintain the integrity of the stainless-steel body across multiple handling cycles. Supplied as one piece, this calibration weight fits seamlessly into OIML-compliant scale-checking routines.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight, 2kg, OIML M3, OH, CERT
What is this article?
Weight, 2kg, OIML M3, OH, CERT is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus 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.
