Readout stability of the Ottawa pea tenderometer / Peter W. Voisey.A58-4/433E-PDF

"Tests were conducted over a 2 month period to examine the stability of the electronic force indicating system of the Ottawa Pea Tenderometer. The results show that over a period of 65 days changes in the zero and sensitivity of the force indicating system were not detectable. The electrical force calibration system was also stable within 0.5% of full scale. It was concluded, therefore, that the Ottawa Pea Tenderometer could be operated for long periods without adjusting the electronic force indicating system. This, however, does not eliminate the need for routine calibration checks to verify accuracy. These checks are easy to accomplish and allow confidence in the instrument readings"--Summary.
