To determine the Glass Rate Meter calibration number for any glass yield
not given in charts C and D calculate the calibration number as the
example below.
VRC-2000-XXX, Pro Chopper and 4 Strand Chopper assemblies (70020-X)
Example: Tex 2400 g / km
Rotor circumference:

VRC-2000-XXX, Pro Chopper and 4 Strand choppers (70020-X) = 95.7555 mm.

6 Strand Chopper Assembly (70010-1) = 137.2489 mm.
1. Divide tex number by 10
6
mm and by 1000 g to get kg / mm.
2400 grams 1 x 10
6
mm 1000 g 2.4 kg
1 km 1 km 1 kg 1 x 10
6
mm
2. Multiply the circumference of the chopper rotor in mm by the glass tex
in mm.
95.7555 mm 2.4 kg
1 rev 1 x 10
6
mm
3. Multiply the result of step 2 by 60 (the seconds in one minute).
.0002298 kg 60 sec
1 rev 1 min
4. Multiply the result of step 3 by the number of strands.
.01379 x 2 strands = .02758 calibration number for 2 strands
x
x
= .0002298 kg / rev
x = .01379 calibration number for 1 strand
