    This government purchase description (26S-636A-FL) outlines the requirements for a Coriolis Flowmeter Calibrator (CFC) that uses water as the calibration fluid. The CFC must generate flows from 50 to 110,000 kg/hour with precise measurement uncertainty (±0.08% for mass flow, ±0.15% for volumetric flow). Key features include four master Coriolis meters, user-adjustable coefficients, and the ability to display flow rates in various volume and mass units with definable time bases. The system requires an automated air bleed function, a footprint no larger than 18 x 30 ft, and redundant master meters. A Windows 11 64-bit compatible controller with specific hardware requirements (e.g., 8 GB RAM, 120 GB SSD) is mandated, excluding Lenovo brands. The contractor must provide software support, a five-year warranty, annual recalibration, installation, and training. Documentation, including an operator's manual with calibration procedures and engineering drawings, is also required.
