Entering the K-Factor (FRctr)Figure 5-7:
K-Factor units (Fun iT)
Select the units defined by the K-Factor (example: pulses/gal). Most flow meter
manufactures include this information with the totalizer. This only enters the K-Factor. See
Set rate display units (rAtEU) to set or change the rate display units. The K-Factor unit may
be a custom unit (CUST).
Automatic unit conversions are not performed when the K-Factor unit is set to custom. For
information on this feature, see Automatic unit conversions.
K-Factor decimal point (dEc.Pt)
Set the number of decimal places for the K-factor value (0.6 as needed). Pressing the Right
arrow to move the decimal point one place to the right. Press the Up arrow to move the
decimal point one place to the left.
K-Factor value (FActr)
Enter the K-factor value in Pulses/Unit as defined by the K-Factor Units parameter. Most
flow meter manufacturers provide this information with the totalizer.
5.7.3
Display units (UnitS)
Use the Units menu to select the display rate units and time (example: Gal/s). Use the
display units for total and grand total.
Important
Select only the display units. The units defined by the flowmeter K-Factor of a flow meter are entered
in the K-Factor menu as part of the Factor Unit menu programming. Refer to K-Factor units (Fun iT) for
details.
This allows the display units to be different from the units defined by the flow meter, or they can be
easily changed after initial programming. Unit conversions for rates and totals are automatically
calculated by the meter. Refer to Automatic unit conversions for details.
