When not otherwise provided by law, the Director shall have the power to inspect and
test, and ascertain if they are correct, all weights and measures kept, offered, or
exposed for sale. It shall be the duty of the Director, within a twelve-month period,
or less frequently if in accordance with a schedule issued by him, and as much oftener
as he may deem necessary, to inspect and test, to ascertain if they are correct, all
weights and measures commercially used (1) in determining the weight, measurement,
or count of commodities or things sold, or offered or exposed for sale, on the basis
of weight, measure, or count, or (2) in computing the basic charge or payment for
services rendered on the basis of weight, measure, or count; provided, however, that
with respect to single-service devices, that is, devices designed to be used commercially
only once and to be then discarded, and with respect to devices uniformly mass-produced,
as by means of a mold or die, and are not susceptible of individual adjustment tests
may be made on representative samples of such devices; and the lots of which such
samples are representative shall be held to be correct or incorrect upon the basis
of the results of the inspections of and tests on such samples.
