Summary

Description

Photo of the Danish national Kilogram prototype, known as K48, is located at the Danish National Metrology Institute. The mass of K48 is documented as being 112 µg greater than that of the IPK—the International Prototype Kilogram—kept at Paris. K48’s mass was compared to the IPK when it was made in 1949 and was remeasured during the 1989/1992 periodic verification.
