Description
Weight set KERN 343-074 is a precision M1 class test weight set covering the nominal range from 1 mg to 2 kg. The pieces are configured as knob weights and manufactured from fine-turned stainless steel in accordance with OIML requirements. Milligram weights from 1 mg to 500 mg are supplied in a separate plastic case to ensure secure handling and organised storage. The complete assortment is housed in a plastic case that protects the individual weights during transport and routine laboratory use. This configuration supports calibration, adjustment and periodic verification of analytical and precision balances in quality-control, research and industrial metrology environments. Produced by manufacturer Kern, the set provides reliable reference masses in the M1 accuracy class. The fine-turned stainless-steel surface contributes to long-term mass stability and straightforward cleaning under normal laboratory conditions. Laboratories obtain a complete, ready-to-use collection that facilitates consistent instrument performance checks and documented mass traceability.

Questions about Weight Set KERN 343-074
What is this article?
Weight Set KERN 343-074 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.
