2.4  Monitoring the test substances 
The metrology features of the balance and any  possible available adjusting weight 
must be checked at regular intervals within the scope of quality assurance. For this 
purpose, the answerable user must define a suitable interval as well as the nature 
and scope of this check. Information is available on KERN’s home page (www.kern-
sohn.com)  with  regard  to  the  monitoring  of  balance  test  substances  and  the  test 
weights required for this.  Test weights and balances can be adjusted quickly and at 
a  reasonable  price  in  KERN’s  accredited  DKD  calibration  laboratory  (return  to  na-
tional normal).
