6  Verification Intervals

The question of finding the right frequency of calibration accuracy verification depends
on several different factors:

 

Operating time and load of the SCHMIDT tension meter

 

Tolerance band defined by the customer

 

Changes of the tolerance band compared to previous verifications of calibration

Therefore, the interval between verifications must be determined by the user`s
Quality Assurance Department based on the user`s experience.
Assuming normal operating time and load as well as careful handling of the tension meter, 
we recommend a verification interval of 1 year.

Should you have any questions regarding the instrument or Operating Instructions, or their 
use, please indicate above all the following details which are given on the ID plate: 
  1) Model 
  2) Serial number

7  Correspondence

To avoid unnecessary follow-up questions, and the resulting loss of time or 
possible misunderstandings, please return the instrument with a detailed fault 
description to our service department. Please indicate in your order whether you 
require an Inspection Certificate 3.1 according to DIN EN 10204.
