4.4 Monitoring of Test Resources
In the framework of quality assurance the measuring-related properties of the bal-
ance and, if applicable, the testing weight, must be checked regularly. The responsi-
ble user must define a suitable interval as well as type and scope of this test. Infor-
mation 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. In
KERN’s accredited DKD calibration laboratory test weights and balances may be
calibrated (return to the national standard) fast and at moderate cost.
