11、ubcommittee ISE/NFE/4/1, under the direction of Technical Committee ISE/NFE/4. The initial draft of this standard was based on the Institute of Measurement and Control publication WGL9301 1, but the standard has evolved significantly since that time. Other standards and international recommendations

12、 exist for the calibration of load cells, but these are restricted to specific areas of load cell use. BS EN ISO 376 covers the calibration of force-proving instruments (including load cells) used for the verification of uniaxial testing machines, and the use of load cells classified to it is specif

13、ied by various machine calibration standards. In the legal metrology area, OIML R60 2 prescribes evaluation procedures for load cells used in the measurement of mass. This British Standard does not replace the existing documents but is intended for use in those areas of industrial weighing and force

14、 measurement in which the existing procedures are not applicable. It has been assumed in the preparation of this British Standard that the execution of its provisions will be entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people, for whose use it has been produced. WARNING. This British Standa

15、rd calls for the use of procedures (e.g. inclined and eccentric testing) that may be injurious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage. This publication do

16、es not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages

18、l weighing and force measurement applications. NOTE The technical procedures covered in this British Standard are split into one “standard calibration” (Clause 7), which determines the basic response of the system in terms of non-linearity and reproducibility, and a number of “supplementary calibrat

19、ions” (Clause 8 to Clause 22), each of which determines the response of the system to one specific input factor. It is envisaged that load cell systems calibrated in accordance with this standard will normally undergo the standard calibration, possibly together with a number of supplementary calibra

20、tions, but a system may also be calibrated solely in accordance with one or more of the supplementary calibrations. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
