1. Range of application
This technical document specifies a calibration procedure for scale (non-automatic scales class I) with a division value not greater than 1 mg. Technical scale is (non-automatic scale class II) according to OIML R76.
2. Calibrating techniques
- Outside check
- Technical check
- Measurement check
3. Calibrating instruments
3.1 Standard measuring instrument (s)
- Analytical Balance:
Sets of weights E2, Class E2, Measuring range: 1 mg ÷ 500g
Sets of weights F1, Class F1, Measuring range: 1g ÷ 500g
- Technical Scale:
Sets of weights F1, Class F1, Measuring range 1g ÷ 500g
Standard Weight F1, Class F1, Measurement weight: 1 kg, 2 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg.
- Bench Scale:
Standard Weight M11, Class M1, Measuring range 0 ÷ 150kg
3.2 Auxiliary Instrument(s)
Hygro - Thermometer:
- Range of Measurement: (0 ÷ 50) °C
- Accuracy: ± 0,5 °C
- Range of Measurement: (10 ÷ 95) %RH
- Accuracy: ± 3 %RH
4. Conditions for Calibration
The calibration site must be bright, away from heat sources, wind sources, and not vibrated.
Temperature, humidity in the calibration site ensures:
Ambient temperature: (22 ± 3) ° C
Air humidity: (40 ÷ 80) %RH.
The scale should be calibrated at the site of use.
5. Prepare for Calibration
Before calibration, the following preparations must be done:
- The scale must be clean.
- Place the scale to be calibrated firmly on a surface and adjust the scale.
- Turn on the scale for at least 30 minutes or as required by the manufacturer.
- The scale to be calibrated should be thermally equilibrium with the environment in which it is calibrated. The minimum time required for this process is specified by the manufacturer.
6. Begin the calibration
6.1 Outside check
6.2 Technical Check
6.3 Measurement check
6.3.1 General requirements
6.3.2 Begin the calibration
- Test repeatability
- Check the deviation angle
- Check the correctness
7. Measurement Uncertainty Evaluation
7. Measurement Uncertainty Evaluation
8. General handling
- The calibrated scale is stamped, certified in paper.
- The calibration result includes standard value, indicator value, main number, together with the measurement uncertainty expanded for each weight level, coverage factor k.
- The recommended calibration cycle of scale is 12 months.
