Description
Weight set comprising two 1 kg weights and one 500 g weight provides a compact combination for balance checks, span verification, and routine laboratory calibration tasks. The set is supplied as one complete unit and is intended for use with precision and analytical balances where kilogram-range reference masses are required. With a net weight of 0,763 kg and a gross package weight of 0,9 kg, the assortment is practical for bench-side storage and transport within the laboratory. Listed under test weights and miscellaneous weighing accessories, this configuration from manufacturer Ohaus supports multi-point checks by combining the individual pieces as needed. Country of origin is China. Laboratories in research, production control, and service environments can use the set to confirm scale performance across common working ranges without assembling separate single weights. Handle weights with clean gloves or forceps, store them protected from dust and corrosion, and apply them only on clean weighing pans to preserve mass stability and measurement integrity over repeated use.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight Set, 2x1kg, 1x500g
What is this article?
Weight Set, 2x1kg, 1x500g 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.
