METTLER TOLEDO recommends GWP® Verification to determine the actual minimum weight of this instrument on site.

Furthermore, GWP® Verification provides all necessary information on testing procedures, frequencies and weights to maintain reliable weighing accuracy throughout the lifecycle of the instrument.

The GWP® Verification document can be issued for all models and suppliers of scales and scales. Through its risk-based approach it provides optimal performance verification activities at lowest costs.

Ask METTLER TOLEDO for an assessment of your installed base of weighing equipment to reduce costs and risks. Plus, receive complete audit-compliant documentation at one glance. www.mt.com/GWP.

Readability (display resolution) of a balance or scale often is mistaken for accuracy. As a matter of fact, readability is just one contributor to the measurement uncertainty, which is the scientific expression of an instrument's accuracy. To ensure accurate measuring, you must consider at least the following factors prior to the selection of a new balance or scale:
