Norstrom
are able to offer two methods for carrying out Weigh Checks.
'Dead Weight' Method
This method involves the use of calibrated 20kg
iron bar weights which are traceable back to local trading standards.
All dead weight engineers carry 500kgs of weights together with
all necessary loading cradles. 'Pull Down' Method In view of the
changing manual handling regulations we have developed the Norstrom.
'Pull Down' method
This involves the use of 2 calibrated Loadcells,
which are traceable back to a Namas approved laboratory. The Loadcells
are used in conjunction with a couple of hydraulic rams and enable
checks to be carried out up to 5000kgs without the addition of any
materials. |
