Change in the calibration cycle for flowmeters
Thread Content
Is approval from the metrology bureau required to change the calibration cycle of a flow meter?
It’s for internal use within the factory, so it has nothing to do with the metrology bureau, right? However, according to the **standards**, the calibration schedule shouldn’t be changed without permission, unless ordered by management; there’s nothing you can do about that:lol
Both parties agreed to make the change; the original agreement stated that the calibration cycle had to be approved by the Metrology Bureau
Except for measuring instruments subject to mandatory calibration (used for safety protection, environmental monitoring, healthcare, and trade settlement), other users can determine their own calibration intervals based on their specific usage needs.
For the table related to trade settlements, can’t the inspection cycle be changed? The other party has agreed.
In the case of public good trade and sales, that is, sales from one party to multiple parties, it is best to conduct inspections in accordance with the rules. In one-on-one sales, as long as both parties agree, it is possible to extend the inspection interval, shorten it, or even skip the inspection altogether
Tables used for trade settlement are subject to mandatory inspection and must comply with **standards. Even if the other party agrees, one must consider the possibility that a lawsuit might be necessary; the metrology bureau will not testify.
It depends on both parties involved in the settlement; if they’re both agreeable, it’s not necessary either.
If both parties are willing, there’s no need for approval from the metrology bureau, right?
Meters used for trade settlement are subject to mandatory calibration; why change something that is free?
It’s not free; we send them for testing on our own. This table was classified as a Class A table during the initial project phase, which is why it must be sent for inspection every year. Now, there are plans to change it to Category B, with inspections required once every two years.
