"Velocities and pressures are measured to our best knowledge"?!?!?!

What does that mean?

Sounds like obfuscation.

Surely it should be a simple question and answer. Q: Do you pressure test your load data? A: Yes or no.

On the basis of that reply there is doubt and their data is not acceptable on here at this time.

I am sure that it is however there is no pressure data in the "published data below". so that statement does not prove or confirm pressure testing.

Can you not see that they are not proving or confirming their data is pressure tested.

This meaningless haggling over the acceptability of their data must stop. Until they provide an unequivocal yes to pressure testing their data then it is not acceptable!!!

Playing semantics with their ambiguous reply is taking this no further and is a waste of the forums time and will stop!

It is a simple yes or no if they cannot/will not provide that then it looks like dodgy data.

Why a powder manufacturer would behave this way is beyond me, looks all a bit odd to me.

Why the fixation on this, it is not as though sharing loads around is good practice, the inability to show this shyster powder companies loads should in no way diminish your engagement here so let it go.

There is clearly stated pressure in bars for min and max load.
