Terms
Calibration
Adjustment of the balance so that it can weigh accurately.
Calibration weight
A weight used for calibration
Data number
Numbers assigned sequentially when weighing data or unit weight is
stored.
Digit
The minimum weighing value available. Used for the balance, one digit
is the smallest mass that can be displayed.
Environment
Ambient conditions such as vibration, drafts, temperature, static
electricity and magnetic fields which affect the weighing operation.
External weight
The weight that you have.
GLP
Good Laboratory Practice.
GMP
Good Manufacturing Practice
ISO
International Organization for Standardization
Repeatability
Variation in measured values obtained when the same mass is placed
and removed repetitively. Usually expressed as a standard deviation.
Example: Standard deviation = 1 digit: This means that measured
values, obtained when the same sample is placed and removed
repetitively, fall within ±1 digit in the frequency of about 68%.
Re-zero
To set the display to zero.
Sensitivity drift
An affect that a change in temperature causes to the weighing data.
Expressed as a temperature coefficient.
Example: Temperature coefficient = 2 ppm/°C : If a load is 10 g and the
temperature changes by 10°C, the value displayed changes by the
following value.
0.0002%/°C x 10°C x 10g = 0.0002 g
Stabilization time
Time required after a sample being placed, until the stabilization
indicator illuminates and the weighing data is displayed.
Tare
To cancel the weight of a container which is not to be included in the
weighing data. Normally, refers to an operation of placing a container
and setting the display to zero.
Target mass
An external weight used for calibration test
Zero point
A weighing reference point. Usually refers to the value displayed when
nothing is on the weighing pan.
