The service fits naturally into Richter Scale's broader equipment, load-cell, weighbridge, and calibration ecosystem.
Legal metrology verification, repair support, and compliance guidance for trade-use weighing systems across South Africa.
Accreditation and legal metrology
Richter Scale states that it is an NRCS and SANAS accredited verification body and repair body under South African legal metrology requirements. This site routes verification enquiries into that established weighing ecosystem.
Support for trade-use weighing equipment and prescribed-purpose applications.
Verification and calibration work aligned to recognised metrology standards.
Connected to Richter Scale's long-running weighing, load-cell, and weighbridge experience.
From weighbridges and platform scales to load-cell based weighing systems, the service is structured around accurate, traceable, and audit-ready outcomes.
Verification preparation and checks for trade-use weighing equipment where regulatory compliance is required.
Fault finding, load-cell replacement guidance, indicator configuration, and repair coordination before final verification.
Site, instrument, and test-weight readiness checks so verification visits are planned with fewer delays.
What we verify
Vehicle mass measurement, axle systems, and high-capacity site equipment.
Industrial floor scales, pallet scales, platform systems, and bench equipment.
Tank, hopper, silo, conveyor, and custom weighing systems where verification is required.
Container weighing, logistics environments, and production weighing workflows.
Verification work is most efficient when the instrument details, site access, capacity, and intended trade use are confirmed early.
• Instrument type, capacity, and location confirmed
• Trade-use or prescribed-purpose status reviewed
• Test equipment and site requirements planned
• Documentation prepared for operational records
Capture instrument details, usage, capacity, and the compliance requirement.
Resolve repairs, settings, access, and readiness items before verification.
Complete the verification workflow and issue the relevant service record.

Enquiry details
Include the scale type, capacity, site location, trade-use status, current fault or service need, and preferred timing.
Instrument: weighbridge, platform scale, axle weighing, pallet scale, load-cell system, or other.
Capacity and readability: maximum load, divisions, and indicator/model details if available.
Location and access: site address, access restrictions, and whether test weights or lifting equipment are needed.
Use case: trade use, prescribed purpose, internal control, repair, or re-verification after service.
Share the instrument type, location, capacity, and whether the scale is used for trade. The team will help route the enquiry to the right verification or repair workflow.
Final verification depends on the instrument condition, type approval, installation, access, site readiness, applicable legal metrology requirements, and successful completion of the required checks. Specifications, service availability, and verification outcomes must be confirmed by Richter Scale before work proceeds.
