WHAT DOES
NTEP LEGAL FOR TRADE
CERTIFIED SCALES MEAN?
Industry and government
metrology professionals alike recognize the essential role that uniform
standards play in maintaining equity in the marketplace. As new commercial
weighing and measuring devices come to market, how can manufacturers
comply with these standards without incurring costs of multiple redesigns
or marketing delays? How can the various weights and measures jurisdictions
have confidence that these newly designed devices are capable of meeting
the applicable weight and measures standards? Where can both industry
and weights and measure officials go to discuss solutions to certification
of new devices and new technology? NTEP is the answer.
An official NTEP
Certificate of Conformance is issued by National Conference on
Weights & Measures (NCWM) following successful completion of the
evaluation and testing of a device. This Certificate indicates that
the device meets applicable requirements for commercial weighing and
measuring equipment in the U.S. Once
you receive your NTEP approved price computing scale, you will need
to contact your individual states weights and measures department
to determine when you need to have your scale certified by your state.
