Description
The 500 g OIML M3 calibration weight is an individual scale calibration weight intended for verification and routine checking of laboratory and industrial balances. It meets OIML accuracy class M3 and is supplied certified for metrological use. Weights from 1 g to 10 kg are made of stainless steel and delivered in a protective case that helps maintain surface quality and dimensional stability during storage and transport. This single-piece unit from manufacturer Ohaus offers a nominal mass of 500 g and supports reliable calibration workflows in quality control, research and production environments needing traceable mass references. Net weight is 0,683 kg. Originating from Switzerland, the weight is suited to repeated handling in laboratory settings while remaining within the specified M3 tolerance class. Robust stainless-steel construction and protective packaging make it a practical reference standard for balance testing, adjustment and periodic verification across analytical and industrial weighing applications that demand consistent OIML M3 performance.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight, 500g, OIML M3, OH, CERT
What is this article?
Weight, 500g, OIML M3, OH, CERT is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus for laboratory use. It sits in Calibration & test weights, inside Balances & scales, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
