Description
Weight set KERN 313-074 is a precision E2 class calibration weight set covering the nominal range from 1 mg to 2 kg. The knob-style weights are manufactured from polished stainless steel in accordance with OIML requirements, providing stable reference masses for laboratory and industrial metrology. Milligram weights in the subdivision 1 mg to 500 mg are housed in a separate plastic etui for secure handling, while the complete assortment is supplied in a protective plastic case. This configuration supports routine verification, adjustment and quality-control tasks on analytical and precision balances where E2 tolerance is specified. The polished stainless steel construction offers good corrosion resistance and long-term dimensional stability under normal laboratory conditions. Offered as one complete set from manufacturer Kern, the assortment enables efficient calibration workflows across a broad low-to-medium mass range. Clear organisation of the individual pieces facilitates rapid selection and reduces handling errors during daily use in calibration laboratories and quality-assurance departments.

Questions about Weight Set KERN 313-074
What is this article?
Weight Set KERN 313-074 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.
