The FTC Model TU is by far the world's most widely used Tenderometer. In numerous industry and governmental trials it has always been proven to be the most accurate, reliable, consistent and easy to use instrument of it's kind. The TU comes with a calibrated Test cell and Force Transducer to read out directly in Tenderometer Units. Moisture sealed for use in a processing plant, the TU requires no maintenance and yearly recalibration of the system is easily performed by FTC with fresh peas each season.

Simply load the sample and press the "RUN" button. The system automatically clears the last reading, completes a test cycle and displays the new test results in industry standard Tenderometer Units.

For 40 years, processors worldwide have relied on FTC Tenderometers to determine harvest dates, buy on grade, and position harvesters for the most effective crop yield. With profits at stake a point or two off the standard can be very costly. FTC systems have proven to be the most dependable accurate, and trouble-free ever created for grading pea quality. Accurate readings can save thousands of dollars a day for a medium to large operation, and quickly pay back the initial investment.
