Specifying a Tolerance, the Difference Between Percentage of Indicated Value vs % of Full-Scale Output - Intro In looking at various equipment, it seems the force equipment in the test and measurement industry specifically specifies tolerances as a percent of full scale. When determining accuracy or tolerance, several crane scales, tension links, and hand-held force […]

Converting an mV/V Load Cell Signal into Engineering Units: Why This May be the Most Accurate and Cost-Effective Way to Use a Calibration Curve Most bridge-based sensors typically specify a rated output Sensitivity (R.O.) shown in Figure 1 below. This Rated Output is generally found under Electrical specifications. It is usually in mV/V, where mV/V […]

Morehouse has been in business since March 15, 1920. The company started as a local machine shop. Mr. Morehouse owned the company, and Harry E Zumbrun worked with him. When Mr. […]
Morehouse Universal Calibrating Machine Manual: Morehouse Universal Calibrating Machines were originally developed to make use of the inherent high accuracy of Morehouse Proving Rings to calibrate working load cells. Today, calibrating machines are used extensively in industrial, government, and military laboratories, not only for the calibration of load cells but for calibrating force transducers, dynamometers, […]
How to Calculate the Resolution of a Load Cell Per Section 4.14 of JCGM 200:2012, Resolution is the “smallest change in a quantity being measured that causes a perceptible change in the corresponding indication.” Over the years, this simple definition has become a topic of confusion in the metrology community. We are hoping to simplify […]
Morehouse Hydraulic Hand Pump Morehouse UCM manual: The hydraulic jack is activated by a two-speed hand pump. It is a dual-volume design based on a double-diameter piston. An auxiliary screw piston (Vernier piston) is provided on the pump for the application of minute increments of force. The pump is connected to the hydraulic jack by […]
The Importance of Considering Reproducibility in the Measurement Process Uncertainty - Intro Most people in the metrology community will agree that a calibration laboratory's ability to reproduce measurement results belongs in an uncertainty budget. Several Accreditation Bodies require reproducibility to be at least considered as part of a calibration laboratory's Calibration and Measurement Capability (CMC). […]
