Calibration& Repair Service
Scales are initially calibrated at the factory and should be checked prior to use due to gravitational influences of the balance being used in a different place to the original calibration - which may have been overlooked when buying scales from "Drop Shipping" websites during the pandemic.
However
calibration on it's own won't fix a broken scale and where the unit
won't power up or works eratically must be treated as a repair, we
require simple details such as make, model, capacity and location in
order to assist you - all of which is on the nameplate on the scales.
As
businesses start to recover from the pandemic scales which have been
out service for over 6 months or NEW purchases should be checked prior
to placing back in use, particularly if staff changes have occured as
they may not be able to identify if the scales calibration has been
checked or meet current legislation.
Weighing equipment can lose its accuracy for a variety of reasons such as shock loading (i.e. portable scales used in different locations, such as care homes, hospitals, vans etc.) can cause a change in the reading, or may have "fell off the bench" and no one reported it. Our engineers test, calibrate, all scales purchased through this website.
Budget
scales may be cost effective in a short term but may need calibration
checked more often, the use of manufacturers power adaptors is strongly
reccomended as damage to the scales electronics may occur.
If you are purchasing for use at critical control points in your process we wouldn't reccomend kitchen bathroom scales for factory use, many of which have no spirit level or means of calibration adjustment and may be constructed with glass.
Calibration comprises applying certified calibration weights to the capacity of the balance and noting the value as found, and if outwith manufacturers tollerence adjustment may be required
The results cover Minimum weight , Linearity, Eccentrics and Repaeatability thus providing the user with a comprehensive set of results for the customer to check the scale is suitable for purpose for their application.
We have Technical consultants in Glasgow and Manchester for matters outside normal repairs
