Field Calibration of the Concentrate Pumps, Dispenser Flow Rates,
and Hopper Powder Throw
The factory set default values for the Pump & Dispenser Flow Rates are very accurate and typically do not need
to be field calibrated. However, if the mix ratio accuracy is ever in question, this procedure can be used to reca-
librate the unit in the field. Equipment Required:
50 or 100 ml graduated cylinder, with 1 ml graduations.
1000 ml graduated container.
NOTE: You can calibrate either the Concentrate Pump, Dispenser Flow Rate and set the Hopper Throw Rate in-
dependently. Simply scroll through the menu screen to the desired section and perform only those steps. (Refer
to Calibrating the Dispenser)
Calibrating the Concentrate Pumps.
