High Calibrate (Continued)
PROCEDURE (Option 2)
Placing a static load on the belt that you must weigh):
Before proceeding, ensure that the belt is loaded with an up-scale loading at least 75% of maximum full
scale loading. The up-scale loading may be obtained by placing a static load onto a stopped conveyor,
in the radiation beam. The loading in lbs/ft is obtained by taking the through-put in lbs/min and dividing
by the speed (ft/min). The static loading should be a spread of material that covers at least two linear ft. of
conveyor e.g., if the desired calibration loading is 20 lbs/ft, 2 ft. of loading is 40 lbs. The calibration is to be
done with product spread evenly over the conveyor shaped to the natural slump of the product. The value of
the calibration loading is assigned to the calibration after the gage output is read on the measured material.
Using the Ronan local display or HART communicator find the Main Menu;
Scroll down until you reach and highlight Calibration.
Access Calibration by pressing the right arrow key.
Scroll down until you reach and highlight Cal Weight.
Access the Cal Weight by pressing the right arrow key.
Scroll down until you reach and highlight High Calibrate.
Access the High Calibrate by pressing the right arrow key.
Access the Calibrate by pressing the right arrow key.
Press the F4 key (OK) to the prompt ‘Warning – Remove loop from automatic control
before doing the calibrate procedure’.
Press the F4 key (OK) to the prompt ‘Verify that source is on, detector output is correct, and process is in
calibrate condition’.
Wait until the prompt changes from
‘Performing Calibrate procedure’ … to ‘calibrate SUCCESS. Remember to enter weight of the
material’.
Press the F4 key (OK).
Scroll down until you reach and highlight Cal Weight 20.0000 lb/ft. (Note 20.0000 lb/ft value and units may
very depending on the what value and units were selected.) (Note: You must access the Cal Weight and
either change or acknowledge the value to complete the High Calibration.)
Access Cal Weight 20.0000 lb/ft by pressing the right arrow key.
Use the arrow keys to select and change the display value to the correct weight on the conveyor. Once the
displayed value is correct, press the F4 key (Enter). ). The High Calibrate is complete.
The Mass Density Calibration is complete.
