Calibration
When operating close to extreme use or flow rate conditions (close to minimum or
maximum acceptable values), an on-the-spot calibration may be required to suit the real
conditions in which the meter is required to operate.
Definitions
Calibration factor or “K factor“
Multiplication factor applied by the system
to the electrical pulses received, to transform
these into measured fluid units.
Factory K Factor
Factory-set default factor. It is equal to 1,000.
This calibration factor ensures utmost
precision in the following operating
conditions:
Even after any changes have been made by
the user, the factory k factor can be restored
by means of a simple procedure.
User K Factor
Customized calibration factor, meaning
modified by calibration.
Calibration mode
Two procedures are available for changing
the Calibration Factor:
1. In-Field Calibration, performed by means
of a dispensing operation.
2. Direct Calibration, performed by directly
changing the calibration factor.
In calibration mode, the partial and total
dispensed quantities indicated on the display
screen take on different meanings according
to the calibration procedure phase.
In calibration mode, the meter cannot be
used for normal dispensing operations.
In “Calibration” mode, the totals are not
increased.
ATTENTION
the meter features a non-volatile memory
that keeps the data concerninG calibration
and total dispensed Quantity stored for an
indefinite time, even in the case of a lonG
power break; after chanGinG the batteries,
calibration does not need to be repeated.
