If your monitor was ordered with a Blancett flow meter, the two components ship from the factory calibrated as a set If the
monitor is a replacement, the turbine’s K factor has changed, or the monitor is being used with some other pulse generating
device, programming will be necessary
PROGRAMMING USING PULSE OUTPUT TURBINE FLOW METERS
Each turbine flow meter is shipped with either a K factor value or frequency data If frequency data is provided, the data must
be converted to a K factor before programming the monitor K factor information, when supplied, can usually be found on the
neck of the flow meter or stamped on the flow meter body The K factor represents the number of pulses per unit of volume
The K factor will be needed to program the monitor readout
