Description
Milligram weight set KERN 348-226 is an M1 class calibration set spanning 1 mg to 500 mg. The weights are configured as plates in polished stainless steel conforming to OIML specifications and are housed in a robust aluminium case. This arrangement is intended for precise verification of laboratory balances and scales where class M1 reference masses are required. The aluminium case offers enhanced mechanical protection during storage and transport compared with lighter alternatives. Supplied as a complete 1 set unit from manufacturer Kern, the assortment supports quality-assurance, research and industrial metrology workflows. Net weight is 0,35 kg, providing a stable yet portable package for routine calibration duties. Plate-form construction allows straightforward handling of the finer milligram pieces on weighing pans. The set is suitable for pharmaceutical testing, educational laboratories and production environments that rely on consistent OIML-compliant mass standards for accurate measurement results.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight Set KERN 348-226
What is this article?
Weight Set KERN 348-226 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.
