WARNING
To correctly check accuracy, always keep to the following instructions:
• Use a precision sample container, featuring a graduated scale, with a capacity of at
least 20 litres.
• Before making the check, always make sure you have eliminated all the air from the
system and then run the fuel until a full and regular ow is achieved.
• Dispense continuously at MC BOX maximum ow rate.
• Stop the ow by quickly closing the nozzle.
• Reach the graduated area of the sample container, avoiding prolonged dispensing
at low ow rate, but rather performing short dispensing operations at maximum ow
rate.
• Compare the reading provided by the container, with that provided by MC BOX, after
waiting for all the froth to disappear
WARNING
Dierences of up to 1/10 of a litre aecting the dispensing of 20 litres of uid fall
within the guaranteed precision of +/- 0,5%.
WARNING
All the users to whom a PIN CODE is assigned must be adequately instructed and
be at least acquainted with the contents of this chapter.
