Description
Weight set KERN 362-98 is an M3 class set spanning 1 g to 5 kg, supplied complete in a wooden block. The assortment combines stainless steel pieces for the 1 g to 50 g range with painted cast-iron pieces for masses of 100 g and above. Knob form is used for weights ≤ 50 g and ≥ 500 g, while cylinder form is employed for the 100 g and 200 g pieces, ensuring practical handling across the full series. This configuration supports precise calibration and verification work on laboratory and industrial balances. The complete set is delivered as 1.0 set with a net weight of 14 kg and matching gross weight of 14 kg. Packaging measures 0,07 m height, 0,39 m width and 0,15 m depth for a volume of 0,004095 m³. Produced in Germany (Rheinland-Pfalz), the weight set from manufacturer Kern provides a ready-to-use reference collection for metrology, quality assurance and routine testing applications where M3 tolerance masses are required. The wooden block housing keeps every piece protected and organised for daily laboratory use.

Questions about Weight Set KERN 362-98
What is this article?
Weight Set KERN 362-98 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN 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.
