Work Sheet NA082 ‘Measures and Verification Act in a nutshell’ provides a compact description of legal requirements, directives and standards regarding weighing instruments and the making up of prepackages.

The document looks at the verification requirements to be met by the various weighing instruments such as automatic and non-automatic weighing instruments. It describes permissible errors in the proper use of weighing instruments and the more precise verification process.

NA082 aims to offer guidance regarding the most important aspects of handling weighing instruments for operators, planning engineers, test personnel and maintenance staff of weighing instruments that are subject to verification. This information has been compiled from various sources, thus offering a clearly structured basis.

Knowledge of these regulations is important for selecting suitable weighing systems and contributes towards the uninterrupted operation of these instruments. Meeting all requirements helps to prevent shutdowns by the authorities and to save time unnecessarily spent on verification and approval.
