Verification information
An EU qualification approval is available for those balances marked as appropriate
for verification in the technical data. In the event that the balance is applied in an ar-
ea subject to verification as described above, it must be verified and re-verified at
regular intervals.
Re-verification of a balance is carried out in compliance with the respective legal pro-
visions of the states. The term of verification validity for balances in Germany, for
example, is normally 2 years.
The legal provisions of the country of use are to be observed.
