Description
Service weight set F1 from 1 mg to 10 kg delivers a structured reference mass collection for balance testing, service, and quality-assurance routines in the laboratory. Masses up to 500 mg are supplied as plate weights with material selected by range: aluminium at a density of 2,7 g/cm³ for the lightest pieces, nickel silver at 8,7 g/cm³ for plate weights 1–5, and non-magnetizable special steel at 8,0 g/cm³ with high corrosion resistance for plate weights from 10 mg to 500 mg. Larger masses are high-gloss polished knob weights in special steel, presented together in a wooden case for secure storage and transport. This F1 service set from manufacturer Sartorius supports instrument technicians, metrology staff, and laboratory managers who verify precision and analytical balances across a broad working range. Differentiated materials in the milligram segment balance handling properties with density requirements, while polished knob weights provide practical grip during kilogram-range checks. Supplied as one set with a net weight of 13,800 kg, the assortment is suited to scheduled service programmes, intermediate checks, and documented performance confirmation wherever F1-class weights from 1 mg to 10 kg are specified.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Service weight set, 1g-5kg, F1
What is this article?
Service weight set, 1g-5kg, F1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius 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.
