OPTIONAL CALIBRATION AND CONTROL WEIGHTS
Optional weights for external calibration and routine verification
CENSA balances use external calibration, so suitable calibration or control weights should be specified with the quotation when required. The correct weight package depends on the selected model, typical working range, tare mass, SOP verification points, OIML class, certificate requirement and local quality procedure.
M1 weight set 1 mg–500 g
Optional 24-piece M1 set for lower and middle verification points, multi-point checks and routine laboratory control procedures.
SKU: PRO5291 · Open product
M1 calibration weight 1 kg
Optional 1 kg M1 weight for routine checks or calibration support within defined laboratory and quality-control procedures.

How to select the right CENSA configuration
When selecting the CENSA precision balance series, start with the expected sample mass, tare mass and daily workload. CENSA600 is suitable for lower-capacity routine weighing where finer handling of small samples is needed. CENSA1000 is a practical general laboratory model up to 1 kg. CENSA2000 supports sample, container and material weighing up to 2 kg, while CENSA3000 is intended for larger containers and higher routine capacity up to 3 kg.
For external calibration and routine verification, define nominal weight value, OIML class, certificate requirement, verification points, acceptance limits and verification frequency according to the local SOP. COLO.Science can help confirm the correct CENSA model, optional M1 weights, printer, software, battery option and RS232 data workflow.
