ISA-Inspection Service Agreements

An Inspection Service Agreement is vital to extend the life of your weighing equipment. A thorough inspection by factory-trained certified technicians can find potential problems and reduce equipment down time and repair costs.

ISA is like an insurance policy that heads off equipment failures by servicing equipment properly and identifying potential failures before they happen. This saves time and money and avoids costly and counterproductive equipment downtime. Our satisfied customers let us care for their equipment so they can focus on what they do best.

We offer Inspection Service Agreements to have your scales or balances checked on a regular basis which can reduce your need for emergency repairs. We will work with you on the frequency of these routine checks which can be semi-monthly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually. During these visits, our technicians will perform routine maintenance on the equipment as well as clean, check, and calibrate the equipment. The technicians will certify and label each piece of equipment tested. Carolina Scales, Inc. offers the Certificate Retrieval System (CRS) in which calibration certificates can be accessed from a secure site on the internet. The CRS system will track the calibration history of equipment being tested.

If an Inspection Service Agreement would help you with routine maintenance of your equipment, give us a call and we will assist you in selecting an ISA plan that would be best for your business. We offer a reduced rate under an ISA so you will benefit from savings on service calls.

Call us for prompt, reliable, and efficient service on your equipment.

Certificate Retrieval System

Certificate Retrieval System“Now there’s a better way to store and retrieve your weighing equipment data and calibration documents.”

CRS enables you to store and retrieve all of your scale calibration documents electronically by replacing the labor intensive, paper-based system widely used today.  Carolina Scales, Inc. can provide you with instant access to your scale information through our web site using CRS, the unique new web-based Certificate Retrieval System.

For those companies that are ISO-Certified, CRS greatly improves conformance to ISO guidelines.  Having control of your own calibration data ensures your ISO audits proceed smoothly, giving you a greater return on your ISO investment.
