1.0 SCOPE
1.1 General. This document specifies the minimum requirements for a High Compliance Multifunction Calibrator. This equipment may be of commercial design. It is intended to be used by Navy personnel in shipboard and shore-based calibration laboratories and for on-site, in-place calibration. The equipment will be used primarily on bench top applications for the testing of test sets and other applications requiring high compliance and burden tests that may also pose a danger to unprotected sourcing equipment (up to 240 Vrms, 60 or 400 Hz). For the purpose of this CSS, the High Compliance Multifunction Calibrator shall be referred to as the “calibrator”.
1.2 Usage. Equipment covered by this CSS is intended for testing equipment and systems in the worldwide natural and controlled environments in which Military equipment is operated. Equipment will also be subjected to operational conditions aboard land, sea and air vehicles, both military and commercial, during periods of operation, transportation, and storage. The requirements of this CSS are tailored to the intended use of the equipment. Specific requirements of MIL-PRF-28800F, as identified in this CSS, are invoked according to the class of equipment.
1.3 Classification. Test equipment specified herein is categorized by class, (requirements arising from the intended operational environment), as specified below in 1.3.1 Class through 1.3.3 Color. The class is assigned by the most severe environmental condition expected for the equipment.
1.3.1 Class. The calibrator shall conform to Class 3 requirements in accordance with MIL-PRF-28800F for Navy shipboard and shore-based laboratory use as specified in this CSS.
1.3.2 Enclosure. For the purpose of this CSS, the enclosure refers to the case for each individual major component. The enclosure provides protection for the individual major component during storage, handling, and use.
1.3.3 Color. The color of the calibrator and the transit cases shall be the color normally provided by the manufacturer but shall not be green, magenta, or red.
1.4 Navy shipboard use. Electronic test equipment furnished to the Navy that uses material restricted for Navy use (see 3.2.3.1 Material restricted for Navy use), or that exceeds the size limitations (see 3.6.1 Maximum dimensions, Navy shipboard applications) of this specification, requires approval by the Navy prior to procurement.

A power source interruption is when the voltage falls in the range of 0 to 70% of nominal or frequency falls in the range of 0 to 90% of nominal. Calibrator performance is not required during interruption of the power source. After power interruptions of any duration, the calibrator shall automatically resume operation at either the last operating condition before interruption, or a default power-up condition.
3.5.1.2.4 Lithium batteries. Commercial UL approved equipment that contains lithium batteries (size AA or button cell type) used for memory backup are approved for use under a general blanket approval waiver. Lithium or re-chargeable batteries larger than the type specified above requires a separate approval.

The calibrator shall be provided with any necessary instructions/software (to include programming commands, if not explicitly company proprietary and non-releasable to the Navy or any other commercial customer) needed to adjust/align the calibrator so that the calibrator meets its performance specifications after repair or due to the calibrator failing performance verification.
1. Accessibility for adjustment. The calibrator design shall permit adjustments of components that are changeable without removing any component, printed circuit cards, or subassembly. The use of extender cards is permitted. (Example: Access will be provided to potentiometers that control the accuracy of specified parameters.)

If the calibrator has alignment data stored in memory (example: EEPROM, data files, DACs, etc.) that is necessary for the calibrator to meet its performance specification and modification of this alignment data is necessary after repair or a calibration failure, the calibrator shall be designed and information provided so that the alignment can be performed by the Navy. The alignment process shall be able to use existing Navy calibration standards that meet all necessary minimum performance requirements to satisfy a traceable calibration.
i) This alignment information provided shall include any necessary software (preferably software commands) usable via any allowable communications interface specified in this document, e.g. IEEE-488 data bus, and usage instructions required to perform an alignment (to include any necessary setup instructions/software commands to put the calibrator into the alignment mode, instructions/software commands necessary to gather new alignment data, along with any software algorithms required to format the alignment data into the appropriate data required by the calibrator, and any instructions/software commands necessary to reprogram the calibrator with the new alignment data).
ii) If software is required for the alignment process, preference will be given to software that uses current Navy calibration standards without modification (or the modification must be able to be performed by the Navy). Alternatively, if the software will not use Navy calibration standards without modification and modification by the Navy is not possible, preference will be given if the manufacturer supplies the explicit instructions/software commands and any necessary algorithms for the Navy to develop its own organic alignment support using existing Navy calibration standards.

For the purpose of this CSS, calibration refers to the process of comparing a test instrument with a calibration standard to determine the indicated error at specified test points. Alignment refers to the process of characterizing and adjusting a test instrument to cause it to indicate within its specified accuracy limits.
3.13.1 Calibration certificate. The calibrator provided under this CSS shall have a current calibration certificate, with a calibration data sheet, traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
3.13.2 Calibration interval. The minimum interval between calibrations shall be 12 months. At the end of this interval, a minimum of 85 percent of the units shall remain in tolerance.
3.13.3 Calibration procedure. A calibration procedure in accordance with MIL-PRF- 38793 shall be provided.
3.14 Reliability. The design of the calibrator shall be such that under normal use and operation the calibrator does not fail within 1500 hours of operation with a statistical certainty of 95%. In addition, the calibrator must maintain an 85% in tolerance condition for a period of one year. The manufacturer shall provide a summary of maintenance or warranty records to establish the validity of the statistical assertions. If records of the actual calibrator model offered are not available, records from a similar model may be substituted. The manufacturer shall be able to reasonably establish the claim that the offered equipment shall provide reliability similar to the model used to provide substitute records.
