All parts/components shall be mounted on a mobile cart. 4. The MCS shall use positive displacement "master" flow transducers and precision "master pressure" sensors as the calibration standards. Effects of Minor flow variation shall be reduced by using the "timed average" method. 5. The system shall be equipped with manual pressure source for pressure calibration and shall incorporate vent and isolation valving. 6. The MCS shall provide: a. Pressure range: 0 to 6000psig in two ranges, 0-1000 and 0-6000, +/-0.07% full scale accuracy. b. Flow range: 0.05 to 150 gpm in two ranges, 0.05-7.50, and 5.00-150. +/-0.5% of indicated rate (single K-factor), +/-0.10% of indicated rate with K-factor correction (Interpolated values). c. Working Pressure (Flow System): 3000psig maximum. 7. The system shall provide rapid calculation of "true" flow and printing of a calibration record. It shall be controlled by a Personal Computer operating under MS-DOW, having 33Mhz or faster processing speed, and a 3.5" floppy drive. Operator interface to the PC shall be a Qwerty type keyboard arrangement with flexible membrane type protective cover suitable for use in a shop environment.
