Is this supplied with a calibration certification traceable to NIST??

No, however we didn't require it. We calibrated before issuing to the shop floor.

Monika,This item comes with a certificate of calibration which states. Calibration equipment: calibrated and certified by SGS, accuracy of calibration plus minus 0.5 percent. Hope this helps. Joe

No, I can't provide certification. Check with the manufacturer--maybe he will.It has been consistently accurate when compared to my doctor's scales, that's all I can say for it. One thing is certain---if your weight changes constantly, it won't matter if your Healthometer is accurate or not. You're doing something wrong!

The meter does not come with calibration solution, this is something you would have to purchase separately. The instructions for calibration are in the manual.

No it is not. But it has been very dependable for us. You should calibrate at least once a week. The cost of this meter is cheaper than a higher end units probe. be careful the probe is not a water tight. Hope this helps.

No does not require calibration. I compared with another scale and it was accurate.

It is noted as being calibrated to ± 4 percent accuracy. I'm not sure if a report is included.

Interesting question. You might try the Taylor site. My past experience has been that the calibration isn't correct if it is replaced. My friend upgraded to this unit when his failed. I will probably follow suit. ChefAlarm by ThermoWorks - (Red)

I do not believe this unit required calibration. I checked it against some 1 to 4 oz letters I had and it registered correctly. I have used this for up to 13 oz, including flats, and have sent a lot of mail using it. So far, no issues. Good unit for the price.

I'm not sure if it is an 'official' certificate of calibration, but there is a sticker on the cord that tells when the calibration is good to. Call or e-mail the seller or manufacturer?

I doubt it very much. These strips come with a computer chip that fits into the side of the unit to calibrate it to that particular strip lot. Even if the strips fit a different machine, odds are the results would not be at all accurate.

There is no initial calibration needed and I don't find anything regarding instructions on how to calibrate it should there be the need to in the future. I am assuming that since it works as most digital scales do, measuring changes in electrical resistance distributed to load cells, calibration is performed at the factory and would need to be performed by the factory in the future if there was a need to do so. I have had other digital scales which operated the same way and lasted for many years. It measures the same as a mechanical scale I have so I believe it is accurate from the factory. The only way to tell for sure is to locate a standard and periodically check to ensure it is calibrated against that standard.

I am not sure what you mean by calibrate, but it may require some adjustment to be perfectly sighted in at your desired distance. It includes tools for making the adjustments and some rudimentary instructions.

It seems to calibrate itself upon startup. It will calibrate itself to zero if you turn it on with a container that you intend to fill already on it. As for it's need to be calibrated for accuracy, we'll we just have to trust to the gods of electronics. That said, I've never felt it might be even slightly beyond negligible where error is concerned. I'll buy another if mine ever poops out!

Hi Zitch I just look up the operating instructions on line and it does not indicate that you can calibrate this gauge. I have checked mine against a few manual gauges and it was very accurate. Hope this helps. Dave.

It comes with maybe a ketchup packet worth of calibration solution which will calibrate initially. You can go about a month without calibrating. It falls off a point or 2 by then.

Yes according to the directions. I bought it for that purpose, suitcases and shipping boxes. I've not yet had the opportubity to use it for them. Instructions have about 6 steps to calibrate.
