What Is Load Cell Calibration?
Load cell calibration is the process of verifying and adjusting a load cell’s output against a known weight or standard. This ensures accurate, reliable measurements and consistent performance across applications.
Calibration Services
National Scale Technology operates an ISO-certified calibration laboratory and performs NIST-traceable calibrations, including compliance with E4 and E74 standards. We are proud to be an ISO 9001:2015 accredited calibration facility, committed to precision and quality.
Why Calibrate Your Load Cells and Weighing Equipment?
Regular calibration is essential to:
Ensure measurement accuracy
Maintain regulatory compliance
Prevent flawed data and reporting errors
Avoid inventory discrepancies
Guarantee operational safety
Calibration Capabilities
National Scale Technology offers extensive calibration services:
Compression: 0 to 1,600,000 lbf
Tension: 0 to 500,000 lbf
We maintain a wide range of fixtures for tension calibrations. In cases requiring custom fixturing, our calibration team will design and fabricate solutions tailored to your equipment.
How Often Should You Calibrate?
Calibration frequency depends on usage:
Normal use: Annual calibration is recommended
High or continuous use: Every 6 months is ideal
After overload or physical impact: Immediate inspection and recalibration are necessary
National Scale Technology has experienced application engineers and calibration technicians ready to help you develop a schedule that fits your operational needs.
