4.4 Monitoring of Test Resources
In the framework of quality assurance the measuring-related weighing properties of
the balance and, if applicable, the testing weight, must be checked regularly. The
responsible user must define a suitable interval as well as type and scope of this test.
Information 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.
For balances with height measuring rods, we recommend a metrological examination
of the accuracy of the height measuring rod, however, this is not mandatory as the
determination of human body height involves rather large, intrinsic inaccuracies.
4.5 Reliability check
Before saving and sending the values, please ensure that the obtained measurements
are reliable and ascribed to the relevant patient. This applies to values sent via the
interface as well.
