Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to recalibrate the scale after changing batteries?
A: In most cases, the scale should retain its calibration after changing batteries. However, it is recommended to perform a calibration check to ensure accuracy.
Q: Can I use the scale without calibration?
A: The scale comes factory calibrated, but it is advisable to calibrate it periodically to maintain accuracy.
CALIBRATION
- This scale has been factory calibrated, and does not require calibration prior to use.
- There are no requirements for calibration in the field; users should adhere to their institution’s calibration policies.
- Calibration of your scale can be performed using calibrated kilogram (kg) or pound (lb) weight standards. Minimum calibration is 200 lb / 100 kg. Maximum calibration weight is 1000 lb / 454 kg. The required calibration standard will be the Unit of Measure (UOM) for which the scale is configured. KG models can only be calibrated in kilograms If Everlock® is engaged the scale can only be calibrated in the locked unit of measure.
- Note: Only weights certified and traceable to national standards should be used for calibration.
- Warning: Always ensure that the scale is returned to the correct UOM after scale calibration.
