Calibration
The new scale must be calibrated by a certified service company.

You can find a list of certified Device Service Providers HERE.
A New In-Service Report must be completed and given to the Office of Weights & Measures.
*The New In-Service Report should be completed during the service providers visit.*
After the service company completes their visit and the State receives the completed application, an employee of the Weights & Measures office will come to inspect the scale.

It is recommended that a service company recalibrates the scale each year.
