Calibration – Resin Total & Rate:
Setup and Installation -
The Glass Total counter needs to be calibrated to display the desired value. This is done
by entering a Scaling Factor into the Glass Total display. The scaling factor will depend
on the Glass yield the number of strands being use. Once calibrated the unit will
accurately display the total amount of material processed in the units desired. The units
of measure are determined by the weight measure used i.e. 1 can be either pounds or
kilograms, which ever you choose.
The Glass Rate counter needs to be calibrated to display the desired value. This is
done by entering a Display Value and Input Value into the Glass Rate meter. These
two Values are determined by the material used, time units and units of measure
desired i.e. kilograms per minute or pounds per minute. Once calibrated the unit will
accurately display the rate at which the material is being dispensed in the units desired.
Notes: Yield – yards per pound
Tex – gram per one kilometer of glass
One revolution or pulses = 3.767 inches or 95.682 mm
One yard equals 36 inches, so we divide 36 by 3.767 and get 9.5567 - the
number of pulses per yard.
One Kilometer equals 1000000 millimeters, so we divide 1000000 by 95.682
mm and get 10451.3 – the number of pulses per kilometer.
The Glass Rate meter should display the “
r
” at the left of
the window to display the rate properly.
The Glass Total meter should display the “ A “ at the upper
left of the window to display the total properly.
