2.10 Test procedures

Each of the tests below is presented as a “stand alone” individual test. However, for the efficient conduct of the load cell tests, it is acceptable that the increasing and decreasing load, creep, repeatability, and minimum dead load output return tests can be conducted concurrently at the given test temperature before changing to the next test temperature (see 2.11, Figures 2 and 3 ). The barometric pressure and the humidity tests are conducted individually following completion of the above tests.
