Resource – C2® Weightless Calibrations

Hardy’s C2® Electronic Calibration eliminates the need for heavy test weights, making scale calibration faster, safer, and more accurate. With C2, scales are calibrated in seconds using one reference point instead of five, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.

Key Features

  • One-Point Calibration: No need for multiple test weights, significantly speeding up the process.
  • Electronic Load Sensor Data: Each C2-certified load cell stores its own calibration data for instant recognition.
  • Safe & Hassle-Free: Eliminates the risks of lifting and handling heavy weights.
  • Automatic Detection: Hardy instruments detect and record load point performance for quick setup.
  • Calibration Verification: Simple test weight application confirms accuracy, ensuring a properly functioning scale.

How C2® Works

A C2 system includes load points, a junction box, cabling, and instrumentation, all working together for seamless calibration. Hardy instruments automatically detect C2-certified load points, requiring only a single reference point entry to bring the system online.

To verify calibration, a small test weight (25-100 lbs.) is applied. If the scale reads correctly, it is calibrated and ready for use.

Advantages Over Traditional Calibration

  • No need to remove live weight from the scale.
  • Ideal for vessels with limited access or high capacities.
  • Eliminates test weight-related injuries and downtime.
  • Prevents material contamination and waste issues.

Why Choose Hardy C2®?

Used in thousands of weighing systems since 1994, Hardy’s C2 technology provides consistent, accurate results without the challenges of traditional test weights. Whether for new installations or recalibrations, C2 saves time, enhances reliability, and improves safety.
