Notice Title

High Precision Mass Comparator (Mettler A10XL model)

Notice Description

The equipment is used for the highest level of mass calibration in the UK and is part of the country's traceability of mass standards within the national measurement system, so we require a top level precision mass comparator to achieve the necessary accuracy and level of uncertainty in the measurement. The required mass comparator must have a capacity of 10.1 g and a readability of 0.1 ug (also with the ability to obtain readings of up to 0.01 ug but not via the display). The electrical weighing range must be 0 to 10.1 g and the guaranteed repeatability must be 0.15 ug. Initial installation and training must also be provided as well as full after sales support.
