The accuracy error of the pressure readings on the spec sheet is 1% of full scale range. I was wondering what the full scale range is? I did not record this during lab. Thanks.

This information is actually in the Hampden_channels.pdf in the resources section of CTools for lab 5.

There isnt however information on the accuracy of the volume flow rate. It gives the FSR in the Hampden Channels pdf but not the error anywhere.

You need to use two different files to get the pressure uncertainty in CTools, the Hampden_channels.pdf file and the Hampden_accuracy_errors.pdf file.

But neither file makes any mention of the volume flow rate error. I understand pressure, I guess the question is under the wrong header but it pertained to the hampden channels error so I replied here.

Ah yes, sorry, I just misread your earlier post.

It looks like they didn't give you accuracy error of the flowmeter, so in the absence of a model number, you'll have to assume accuracy error to be zero and use the precision and resolution error for the uncertainty.
