In-service verification is a control that confirms the measuring equipment meets requirements for accuracy (tolerance), robustness, and protection against external influences. The requirements tested and the standards applied are the same as those used for conformity assessment under the relevant EU directive (MID or NAWID).
In some cases, companies need equipment and metrological expertise they do not have themselves and want a neutral third party to document that their measuring instruments meet the necessary requirements. These are assignments carried out by the Norwegian Metrology Service upon request, and we will therefore ask for acceptance of the cost estimate before the assignment is confirmed.
Examples of assignments:
- Measurement at tank facilities
- Measurement in industrial settings
- Testing of weighbridges
- Measuring equipment used for monitoring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions
