    Why are the readings on my OHAUS Scales inaccurate?
    • B
      Billy ZamoraAug 26, 2025
      Inaccurate readings on your OHAUS Scales can stem from several causes: * **Calibration:** Improper span or linearity calibration can lead to inaccuracies. Perform the calibration procedure. * **Rezeroing:** Ensure the scales are rezeroed before each weighing. Press the ReZero On button with no weight on the platform, then weigh. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer may cause incorrect readings, and it would need replacement. * **PC Board:** A defective PC board may also be the reason.
