Why are scales for carat necessary? How is the gold in teeth calculated? The ammount of gold determines percentage of gold and other materials in a metal. It is calculated by divisiding in 24. So, one carat of gold has 1/24 parts of gold (= 4,166 %). Gold with 24 carats is considered to be the pure gold. However it is very difficult to eliminate all the impurities to get 100% gold. So 24 carats are equal to 99,9% gold. In order to meet DIN ISO standard, all scales for carat can be DKD certified (this certification must be carried out on situ, where blances for carat are placed. Besides, some of our scales for carat can also be verified (for an extra price) before being delivered to your company. Scales for carat can also be verified by your local authorised verification centre.
Verificaction: According to the WWG standard all scales for carat must be varied if they are used for one of the following purposes (as we have previously mentioned, verification can be carried out by PCE-Instruments company or by your local authorised verification centre):

a) For trading relations when the price of the goods is determined according to their weight.

b) To determine taxes, sanctions, or official fines.

c) For the production of packages.
