1、Designation: F2341 05 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forUser Requirements for Livestock, Meat, and PoultryEvaluation Devices or Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2341; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the ca

2、se of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the requirements for users oflivestock, meat, and poultry evaluation

3、devices or systems usedto measure and record composition or quality constituents oflive animals, carcasses, and individual cuts of meat, whenthose devices or systems provide data that is used to determineeconomic value. Areas covered include: installation, operatortraining, operation, verification,

4、inspection and maintenance ofthese evaluation devices or systems, and documentation ofprocedures for retention of original data.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish

Procedure5.1 InstallationAccurate and consistent results can onlybe obtained from a device or equipment that is properlyinstalled and operated. The user shall maintain documentationthat, at the time of installation, the measuring device w

12、the devices or systems that the user installs, maintains,and operates. The user shall properly train device operators andmaintain documentation that device operators are properlytrained. Assistance in operator training may be obtained fromseveral sources including, but not limited to, device manufac
