Description
F1 weight set covering 1 mg to 10 kg supplies a full series of reference masses for high-accuracy balance calibration and verification. Weights up to 500 mg are configured as plate weights. Aluminium elements have a density of 2,7 g/cm³. Plate weights in the lower milligram range use nickel silver with a density of 8,7 g/cm³, while plate weights from 10 to 500 mg are made of non-magnetizable special steel with a density of 8,0 g/cm³ and high corrosion resistance. Knob weights are high-gloss polished for easy handling and cleaning. The complete assortment is presented in a wooden case that protects the pieces in storage and transit. Available from manufacturer Sartorius, the set supports laboratories and industrial facilities that require F1 class test weights. Net weight is 5,600 kg and gross weight is 6,000 kg. These masses are intended for routine and precision checking of analytical balances, precision scales and other weighing instruments where stable, non-magnetizable and corrosion-resistant reference standards are essential.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight Set 1 mg - 1 kg, OIML F1, DAkkS
What is this article?
Weight Set 1 mg - 1 kg, OIML F1, DAkkS 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.
