Calibration
We can calibrate your existing equipment. All our recalibrations are completed with certified weights traceable to NZ Government weights held by the DSIR.
- Standard
- MAPSS certification (NZ Weights & Measures standard)
Advasco Quality Control Certification
- Verification that a scale is weighing correctly to either the manufacturer’s or a stated tolerance. This calibration test is applicable to all scales. Tests can be carried out regularly on any time basis required, although most clients prefer annual, six-monthly or quarterly tests. All scales sold by Advasco, including both new and second-hand scales, come with Advasco Quality Control calibration accreditation certification.
- NZ Government Weights and Measures MAPPS (formerly TMU) calibration accreditation test. This is required by law when product is bought or sold by weight. The MAPSS test has specific requirements including traceable paperwork and is valid for one year from the date of issue. Due to the time required and certified personnel involved, the scale would normally need to be left overnight. Further information for both consumers and retailers regarding weights & measures is available on the Ministry of Consumer Affairs’ website, using the search term ‘measurement’.
