Verification of Comparator

To verify a comparator's performance, the same procedures outlined by the manufacturer are followed to test accuracy based only on standard deviation from repeatability tests. When evaluating a calibration measurement capability (CMC) value, only type A uncertainty and uncertainties from the reference standard weight and its drift over time or environment are considered, not other factors like eccentricity. Calibrations done by accredited labs are for scientific and industrial use only; additional approvals may be needed for commercial trading as required by legal metrology departments.

3 Verification of Comparator
To verify the performance of the comparator same procedure shall be followed to
ascertain its performance as per manufacturer specification. Only uncertainty due to
standard deviation (from repeatability) is considered during calibration of weights. No
other
components like eccentricity, error of indication etc. are taken into account for a
comparator.
8.4 Evaluation of CMC
8.4.1 CMC value is not the same as expanded uncertainty reported in the calibration
Certificate/Report. CMC values exclude the uncertainties which are attributed to the
UUT
(Unit under test/calibration).
8.4.2 For the purpose of CMC evaluation, the following components should be
considered:
a) Type A uncertainty
b) Uncertainty of the reference standard weight.
c) Uncertainty due to drift in reference standard weight (due to wear and tear,
transportation or temperature variation)
8.5 Legal Aspects
Calibration of weighing balance done by any accredited laboratories is meant for
scientific
and industrial purpose only. However, if used for commercial trading, additional
recognition/ approval shall be complied as required by Dept. of Legal Metrology,
Regulatory Bodies, etc.
