vise drift ved

English translation: Calibration drift

Danish to English translations [PRO]
Science - Medical: Instruments / Maintenance of lab equipment
Danish term or phrase: vise drift ved
I've never come across 'vise drift ved' in this context before and not quite sure how to translate it, I guess it could be something like 'shows signs of wear and tear', but not sure. The document is a SOP for laboratory equipment and the section deals with maintenance/qualification of equipment.

Rekvalificering kan også komme på tale, såfremt et apparat tydeligt viser drift ved gentagne kalibreringer.

Thanks in advance for any help.
