New HI6800 Weight Controller
Manufacturers often use a Quality Management System (e.g. ISO 9001) to ensure their process measurement devices, including industrial tank, floor, platform, and bench scales, are properly maintained (i.e. calibrated and validated).
Manufacturers often use a Quality Management System (e.g. ISO 9001) to ensure their process measurement devices, including industrial tank, floor, platform, and bench scales, are properly maintained (i.e. calibrated and validated). These systems require Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for maintenance that is documented, controlled and calibration results logged.
This document discusses two methods of complying with these requirements: A “TRADITIONAL” method that requires calibration weights to be loaded onto the scale in the manufacturing environment every time a calibration is required and a SMART method that does not require test weights to be loaded for a successful calibration.

Hardy has also written a more specific technical article comparing the “TRADITIONAL” method that requires calibration weights to be loaded onto the scale in the manufacturing environment every time a calibration is required and Hardy’s “C2®” method that does not require test weights to be loaded for a successful calibration.
