Approved Auxiliary Measuring Devices
If the weighing system is used in legal metrology, any auxiliary devices
connected must also be verifiable. Auxiliary devices that are metrologically
relevant, such as printers, remote display units, or the like, must have the
metrology label (black “M” on a green background). The auxiliary device
must be verified at the same time that the entire system is verified. In
Germany, if an auxiliary device is connected at a later date to a verified
system already in operation, the appropriate weights and measures office
must be notified; the auxiliary device may be used in legal metrology directly
following installation, however, provided that it is installed in accordance with
applicable regulations and that it bears the green metrology sticker referred to
above.
“EC Verification” - A Service Offered by Sartorius
Our service technicians authorized to perform the verification of your
weighing instruments that are acceptable for legal metrological verification
can inspect and verify the metrological specifications at the place of
installation within the Member States of the European Union and the
Signatories of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Subsequent Verifications within the European Countries
The validity of the verification will become void in accordance with the
national regulations of the country in which the weighing instrument is used.
For information on verification and legal regulations currently applicable in
your country, and to obtain the names of the persons to contact, please
