Description
Weight set KERN 308-42 is a milligram calibration set of accuracy class E1 covering the range from 1 mg to 500 mg. The individual weights are manufactured as wire pieces from polished stainless steel and are supplied in a protective plastic case. Class E1 designation makes the set suitable for high-precision verification and calibration of analytical and microbalances in quality-control and metrology laboratories. The polished stainless-steel construction provides corrosion resistance and long-term mass stability under normal laboratory conditions. Compact packaging in the plastic etui facilitates safe storage and transport between workstations. This complete milligram weight set from manufacturer Kern is delivered as one ready-to-use set and supports routine performance checks where traceable reference masses in the low-milligram range are required. The wire form of the weights allows convenient handling with appropriate tweezers while maintaining the integrity of the polished surfaces.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight Set KERN 308-42
What is this article?
Weight Set KERN 308-42 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.
