Resin Rate and Resin Total Calibration – Quick Start Method:
To Calibrate the Resin Rate and Resin Total using the Quick Start Method –
First setup the program parameters for the two displays as noted on the setup sheets in
the back of the manual. Now you setup the unit to recalculate the material.
Then take a weight measurement (pounds or kilograms) for one minute. This is your
Resin Rate per minute.
• The Resin Rate is specified by two programmable parameters: The Rate Display
Value and a corresponding Rate Input Value. The Display Value is the time base,
so set the Display Value to 60 for minutes. Now adjust the Input Value so that the
Rate displayed equals the measurement taken. Be sure not to change any of the
pump settings or you will need to take another weight measurement.
• The Resin Total is specified by the Scale Factor parameter and should equal the
Resin Rate for one minute. Adjust the Scale Factor so that the Resin Total displays
the resin rate for every minute pumped. Push the total reset and time one minute
the amount displayed should equal the rate displayed.
Repeat this process until the unit displays the correct amount and rate of material
pumped; the Resin Rate and Total Displays are now calibrated.
For a more accurate metering, run the tests for a longer period of time.
The calibration can be conducted through the return valve at the filter or before the
catalyst system is primed, so the resin can be processed through the gun and then be
returned to the source without fear of catalization.
