THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE NPL NEXT GENERATION KIBBLE BALANCE

I. A. Robinson

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the architecture of the NPL “Next Generation” Kibble balance. The balance is intended to realise SI mass in the 100 g to 250 g range with an ultimate target uncertainty of one to two parts in 108. It is intended to be simpler to build and operate than previous generations of Kibble balance with the aim of allowing many more laboratories to participate in the realisation of a global mass scale.
