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. If Everlock®
is activated 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.
