Description
E2 individual weight is a precision test weight for calibration and verification of laboratory and industrial balances. It belongs to the E2 single-weight series covering nominal values from 1 g to 50 kg and is produced from special steel with a density of 8,0 g/cm³. The surface is high-gloss polished; the material is non-magnetizable and highly corrosion-resistant, supporting stable mass values in routine metrology work. Within this range, pieces up to 20 g are housed in a plastic box, while weights from 50 g are supplied in a wooden case, protecting the polished finish during storage and transport. Offered as a single-piece unit from manufacturer Sartorius, the weight suits quality-control laboratories, production weighing stations and regulated environments that require OIML E2-class reference masses. Its robust construction and carefully controlled density help maintain long-term dimensional and magnetic stability when used for balance checks, intermediate checks and traceable calibration workflows. Net weight for this variant is 6,800 kg; pack size is one piece.
This article is part of Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Knob Weight 5 kg, OIML E2, DAkkS
What is this article?
Knob Weight 5 kg, OIML E2, DAkkS is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
