Measurement procedure The mass and conventional mass of the Committee Kilogram was determined on the mass comparator M_One, by comparison with METAS reference standards sets number 4, number 14 and number 336 by substitution weighing.

Air density: (1.111± 0.003)kg/m' were the following: Measurement results After having applied the air buoyancy correction to each series of substitution weighings, the following values for the mass deviation and for the conventional mass deviation has been evaluated: Nominal Identification Mass value deviation Conventional Uncertainty of Density mass deviation measurement (kg/m') 1 kg 1853-90.37-81.55 0.10 8500 Uncertainty of Measurement The reported uncertainty of measurement is stated as the combined standard uncertainty multiplied by a coverage factor k = 2. The measured value (y) and the associated expanded uncer~ tainty (U) represent the intelval (y ± U) which contains the value of the measured quantity with a probability of approximately 95%. The uncertainty was estimated following the guidelines of the ISO. The measurement uncertainty contains contributions originating from the measurement standard, from the calibration method, from the environmental conditions and from the object being calibrated. The long-term characteristic of the object being calibrated is not included. ThIS document may not be published or forwarded other than in full M'"'' Undel1weg SO.CH.}oo] ~.Wa~rn.
