Calibrating Specific Density (Densometer)
To accurately calibrate the densometer the temperature reading must be
correct. Always calibrate the temperature before calibrating the density.
Using the ‘K’ Factor switch to calibrate the densometer:
Ensure that the nozzles are
hung up
Press and release the „K‟
Factor switch, in quick
succession, until „LP6‟ is
displayed in the price
display.
The volume display indicates
„00000‟.
Press and hold the „K‟ factor
switch.
A digit, of the volume display,
will begin to increment.
When the digit is correct,
release the „K‟ Factor
switch.
Repeat steps 3 & 4 until the
volume display reads 1.
The volume display indicates
00001.
Press and release the „K‟
Factor switch, in quick
succession, until „den‟ is
displayed in the price
display.
The LPG pump will start and
the volume display indicates
the specific density @ 15ºC.
Press and hold the „K‟ factor
switch.
A digit, of the displayed
setting, will begin to
increment.
When the digit is correct,
release the „K‟ Factor
switch.
Repeat steps 6 & 7 until the
volume display reads the
correct density as measured
by a hydrometer and
corrected to 15ºC.
The volume display indicates
the correct specific density.
The C4000 will reset itself if the „K‟ factor switch is left for
more than 10 seconds.
Pressure does have a small effect on density so you will notice that the
LPG pump will run while the density is being calibrated. This ensures that
the density is always being measured and calibrated at approximately the
same pressure.
