Calibration Weights

Calibration weights are used to calibrate your digital scale so that it is accurate. Depending on the size and accuracy of your digital scale, you may need to use different calibration weights. For example, a 100 gram weight may be required for a more accurate scale, while a 10 gram weight may suffice for a less accurate one.

Calibration Weight FAQs

Calibration weights are weights that are used to calibrate weighing scales and balances. They are typically made of stainless steel or other materials and are available in a range of sizes and weights.

The calibration weight you use will depend on the capacity and accuracy of your scale. You should consult the manufacturer’s instructions or guidelines to determine which weight(s) you need for calibration.

The frequency of calibration will depend on the type of scale, how frequently it is used, and the level of accuracy required. As a general rule, scales should be calibrated at least once a year, but more frequent calibration may be necessary for scales that are used frequently or in harsh environments.

No, only weights that are traceable to a national or international standard should be used for calibration. These weights are typically certified and come with a certificate of calibration.

To use calibration weights to calibrate your scale, you will need to follow the instructions provided by the scale manufacturer. Typically, this will involve placing the calibration weight(s) on the scale and verifying that the scale reads the correct weight. If the scale is not reading the correct weight, you may need to adjust the calibration settings or perform a zero calibration. American Scale also provides calibration services. 

What Our Customers Say

"All ASC technicians have been very professional and are very good at what they do. I have had some in our plant late hours and weekends and they stayed with the problem until the systems are returned to production. I wish I had more of them working with me here."

"We are completely satisfied with the service from American Scale and the timely response they have always given us; from first contact with sales through service technicians. We were in dire straits with our previous vendor because they left us hanging with a poor equipment design. ASC came in and fixed their mess so that we now have an operational scale that gets as much traffic per week as any quarry scale might. Once again, they have not let us down when we needed them the most and my management appreciates that level of customer service."
