Liquid Flow In-Field Calibration

The Liquid Flow In-Field Calibration process is used to calibrate a liquid flowmeter after a real-time
spray application. In-Field calibrations involves discharging a know amount of liquid in a real-time
application and then performing a calibration based on the material discharged. Repeating the pro-
cedure below will ensure an accurate calibration.

1. Load tank with a know amount of product. Record
this amount for later use.

2. With the product loaded, apply the product. Make
sure before starting the application all accumulated
volumes are zero. This can be done by creating a new
job when using a data card or if no data card is in use
select field reset to set volumes to zero. The volume
accumulated will be used in the In-Field Calibration
procedure. For best results apply product at the rate
and speed of normal operation.

3.Once the product has been applied, from the ARM
Launcher page select the Calibration button by using
the function key or by highlighting Calibration and
pressing the green enter button.

4. From the Calibration page select the PCM - Liq Flow
option from the pick list in the middle of the screen.
Press the green forward arrow to continue to the next
calibration step.

5. From the Calibration Mode page select In-Field from
the pick list in the middle of the screen. Press the
green forward arrow key to continue to the next cali-
bration step.
- In Field - Involves driving in a field, simulating a real
time application. -
Static - Does not require the vehicle to move. This is a
stationary test.
