44、rol for testing, calibration and other measurement processes. They are used in the selection of measuring and test equipment (MTE) and in the establishment of suitable equipment substitutions for a given measurement application. In addition, manufacturer specifications are used to estimate bias unce

45、rtainties and establish tolerance limits for MTE attributes and parameters. MTE attributes and parameters are periodically calibrated to determine if they are in conformance with manufacturer specified tolerance limits. The elapsed-time or interval between calibrations is often based on in-tolerance

46、 or out-of-tolerance data acquired from periodic calibrations. Therefore, it is important that manufacturer specifications provide sufficient information about the MTE performance attributes and parameters and that the specifications are properly interpreted and applied in the establishment of test

47、tolerance limits or the estimation of measurement uncertainty. Manufacturers of complex instruments often include numerous time and range dependent specifications. And, since specification documents are also a means for manufacturers to market their products, they often contain additional informatio

48、n about features and operating condition limits that must be carefully reviewed and understood. Unfortunately, there are no universal guidelines or standards regarding the content and format of MTE specification documents. This is evident from the inconsistency in the manufacturer specifications for similar equipment. Some manufacturers provide specifications for individual performance parameters, while others provide a single specification for overall accuracy. Inconsistencies
