5.14 – K-Factor Configuration

Caution

In the majority of applications, the use of a K-Factor is neither required nor desirable.

Before using the K-Factor feature, contact the factory (see Section 8) to review

the application and obtain assistance in determining the K-Factor exponent and gain values.

Turns K-factor function ON or OFF, calculate a K-Factor exponent and gain from measured data, or select a K-Factor
exponent value and K-Factor gain value.

Note: If K-Factor is ON, Process displays will have an asterisk (KFon) to the right of the flow value.
