213.042 Load cells with remote-reading electrical indicators.

(a) Individual load cells or load cell systems must be accompanied by readout or indicating equipment and all associated cables and fixtures.

(b) For the fee quoted, calibration will be made on one machine with up to 10 incremental loads applied consecutively without return to zero load. For each load in excess of 10, an additional fee equal to onetenth of the applicable fee will be charged. For any device requiring the use of more than one machine, a charge will be made covering the cost of the additional work involved.

(c) When devices submitted are found to be unsuitable for test or unreliable, the test may be discontinued and a charge will be made to cover the cost of the work done.
