8.6. Obligations with Legal for Trade Scales

The operator is responsible for the first and all regularly recurrent official calibrations.

Important: The official seal may only be broken by authorized qualified staff.

If one or more of the following changes has happened, the operater has to send a written note to the assigned
public authority and a new official calibration is mandatory:

Broken seals

Replaced load cells

Replaced load carrier

Replaced wiring

Replaced LDUs

Replaced weighing system controller

Replaced descriptive plate

Calibration of the scale

Changes to the approved software settings


Hint: The user is responsible for the correct performance of any official calibration.

8.7. Legal for Trade Data within the Scale Interface

In legal for trade and industrial applications all calibration data will be stored in a flash memory in the scale
interface. These data can only be accessed, if the authentification of the FlintWeigh II Software to the scale
interface is valid. If these data will be saved during a calibration, the electronic calibration counter (TAC) will
automatically increased by one. The stored data is the following:

Structure of the general scale data
Serial no.

Up to 17x per controller; up to 16x type RC3D digital load cell respective LDU

Gravitational factor

Default value: 9.8075656
