About this file
This document is a Purchase Description for the procurement of Molblox Upgrades by the U.S. Army Test Measurement and Diagnostic Equipment Activity (USATA).
The key requirements include upgrading existing Molblox1 units to the Molblox1+ specification, which involves hardware and software changes, pressure transducer characterization, and new gas calibrations. Two options are available: 1) upgrade the existing Molblox1 or 2) trade up to a new Molblox1+. The upgraded units will have version 6.0 or higher firmware and come with a new user manual. The serial number of the upgraded unit will have a "+" added to the original serial number. Delivery is required to the USATA facility at Redstone Arsenal, AL. This procurement is related to Solicitation Number PANRSA-24-P-0000-006534 for the Procurement of Molblox Upgrade, which is a pre-solicitation.

Purchase Descrip�on Procurement of Molblox Upgrade
The U.S. Army Test Measurement and Diagnos�c Equipment Ac�vity (USATA) has a requirement to procure mul�ple Molblox Upgrades to support USATA’s mission as follow:
1.0 Requirements:
Model 3527483 MOLBLOX1 + Tradeup 3 Molblox1+ Flow Terminal Upgrading:
molbox1+ hardware/so�ware changes. Any required parts are changed to make your molbox materially iden�cal to a factory produced molbox1+. The molbox is flashed to v6.0 embedded so�ware. Two op�ons are available: Upgrade your exis�ng molbox1 to meet molbox1+ specifica�ons, or Trade up to a new molbox1+, capturing savings by reusing a few key parts.
Q-RPT characteriza�on of molbox1 internal pressure transducers. Both exis�ng internal pressure transducers are used in the new molbox1+. Extensive characteriza�on of the transducers enhances their precision and ensures they meet molbox1+ specifica�ons.
Molbloc hardware updates. molbloc-L or molbloc-S elements to be used with the molbox1+ require hardware modifica�ons to support the premium uncertainty specifica�on and a new data structure.
New molbloc gas calibra�ons. molblocs are fully modeled and calibrated following hardware updates to realize the benefits of the enhanced gas property data used in molbox1+, Fluke Calibra�on’s improved calibra�on chain and new molbloc lineariza�on and modeling techniques.
Model 3393662 MIL-STD-13OUID, M130 LABEL WITH UID 3
2.0 Molblox Upgrade:
The trade up to a new molbox1+ reuses the pressure transducers and electronic boards (including MFC control) from the exis�ng molbox1. Fluke Calibra�on will build a new molbox1+ that includes the modern molbox1+ enclosure, current molbox1+ embedded so�ware, along with new pneuma�c hardware, quick connect fi�ngs and all accessories (pressure tubes, cables, etc.) Once Fluke Calibra�on receives a purchase order for the Trade up, we provide the customer with RMA instruc�ons to ship the molbox1 to be upgraded to Fluke Calibra�on’s Phoenix factory. First the pressure transducers from the customer’s molbox1 are tested against a primary reference standard so that as received data can be recorded. Then the pressure transducers are characterized as standard class Q-RPTs which yields improved pressure uncertainty, ul�mately on molbox1+ pressure measurements. Once produc�on of the molbox1+ is complete, the Q-RPTs are calibrated and the new molbox1+ is delivered with a new product calibra�on report and a separate As Received calibra�on report with the original molbox1 as received data. The serial number of the molbox (stored in the molbox memory) will be the same as the molbox1 serial number, but a “+” is added to the number on the label, for example SN 417+. The molbox1+ will have version 6.0 or higher firmware and comes with a new User’s Manual. The new molbox1+ will have the MFC control op�on IF and ONLY IF the original molbox1 had the op�on. Customers who want to add the MFC control op�on during upgrade should purchase the MFC-UPGD item below.
3.0 Delivery Requirements:
Shipping Address: U.S. Army TMDE Ac�vity, Atn: Bradley Nease, Building 5435 Fowler Road, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898
