4) What is the flow rate in GPM at 4.3 ft/sec.

0.384 gallons x 4.3 FPS x 60 sec (1min) = 99.1 GPM


Now that the volumetric flow rate is know all that is needed is an output frequency to determine
the K-factor.

Known values are:

Frequency

=

700 Hz (By measurement)

Flow Rate

=

99.1 GPM (By calculation)


1) 700 Hz x 60 sec = 42,000 pulses per min

2)

42,000 pulses per min

K-factor =

= 423.9 pulses per gallon

99.1 GPM
