Description
Plate weight is an F1 individual calibration weight for the milligram range from 1 mg to 500 mg. Construction materials are matched to the nominal value: aluminium with a density of 2,7 g/cm³ is used in the series, while plate weights from 1 mg to 5 mg are made of nickel silver (Neusilber) with a density of 8,7 g/cm³; plate weights from 10 mg to 500 mg complete the offering. The piece is supplied in a plastic box that protects the surface during storage and transport between balance stations. As a compact plate-style test weight, it is convenient to handle with tweezers during routine verification and intermediate checks of laboratory balances. Defined material densities support buoyancy considerations when high weighing accuracy is required. This F1 plate weight from manufacturer Sartorius belongs to the test-weights category used in analytical, quality-control and metrology laboratories. Net weight is 0,001 kg and gross weight 0,020 kg. Origin is Germany (Baden-Württemberg). The single-piece unit is intended for laboratories that need a durable, class F1 plate weight with clearly specified densities and protective plastic packaging for everyday calibration work.

Questions about Leaf Weight 5 mg, OIML F1
What is this article?
Leaf Weight 5 mg, OIML F1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
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.
