To calculate the flow calibration factor:
1. Select a mass flow unit, and send the unit to the flowmeter memory. See Table 6-1.
2. To enter the flow calibration factor into flowmeter memory, refer to the menu below and
follow these steps:
a. At the online menu, choose 4 (detailed setup).
b. At the detailed setup menu, choose 1 (characterize sensor).
c. At the characterize sensor menu, choose 1 (flow calibration factor).
d. Enter the 8-digit flow calibration factor listed on the flowmeter serial number tag. The
flow calibration factor can also be found on the certificate that is shipped with the meter.
e. When the display returns to the characterize sensor menu, press F2 (send) to send the
factor to the flowmeter memory.
3. Zero the flowmeter (see Section 6.3.1).
4. Refer to the menu below, and follow these steps:
a. Reset the internal totalizer to zero.
b. Run three batches of fluid, resetting the scale and totalizer between batches. For each
batch, record the weights indicated by the scale and the totalizer.
5. Divide Total Weight
