The correction factor is the square root of the ratio of the
specific gravity the guage is calibrated for to the specific gravity being
measured.
Thanks Bob, I'll
squirrel that away.
I have everything set up to measure my Meziere 136's except the AN plumbing
which didn't quite fit. I will have another try at it this week. I
bought an RCM-7000 guage on ebay for $50.00 with a measurement range of 4 to 30
GPM. The ad on ebay claimed the original price was $820. I don't
expect to get 30 GPM with my EWP's.
I ended up buying two mechanical gauges from McMaster Carr. One is
1-4.5 gpm, and the other is 5-30 gpm (the highest in that type of gauge).
Each was $59. I don't expect this to be high enough to read the mechanical
pump, but I don't really care about that so much. If necessary, I
could always get a second 5-30 gpm and put it in parallel, then add the
readings.
Cheers,
Rusty
