5.1.1 Number of Streams and their Flow Directions
The number of streams and their flow directions are variable since device
hardware and software can be extended. This number depends upon the
number of board slots available, individual hardware settings and the soft-
ware configuration.
5.1.2 International Standards
Flow Computers of the enCore FC device series support the following
international standards for the calculation of the gas characteristics which
are used for flow conversion. Which standards are supported in detail varies
according to device type:
