Meter Calibration

8. The volume that the ProMix measured displays on
the EasyKey.
9. Compare the amounts on the EasyKey to the
amount in the beakers.
NOTE: For maximum accuracy, use a gravimetric
(mass) method to determine the actual volumes dis-
pensed.
10. If the screen and actual volumes are different, enter
the actual dispensed volume in cc for A, B, C, or
Solvent Volume field, and press the Enter key
.
If the value was substantially different, repeat the
calibration process.
NOTE: If the screen and actual volume is the same
or if for any reason you want to cancel the calibra-
tion procedure, scroll to Abort on the Calibration
Screen menu and press the Enter key
.
11. After the volume for A, B, C, or Solvent is entered,
the ProMix 3KS controller calculates the new flow
meter K-Factor and shows it on the Calibration
Screen.
NOTE: K-Factor values on the screen are viewable
only. If needed, you can manually edit the K-Factors
in Advanced Setup Screen 4 (page 36) or Recipe
Setup Screen 5 (page 41).
12. Always purge sampling valves after calibrating
meters. Use one of the following methods.
• Follow the Purging Sampling Valves and
Tubes procedure, page 61.
• Place the sampling valve fluid tubes into a com-
patible cleaning fluid (TSL or solvent) or cap
them.
NOTE: If fluid hardens in sampling tubes, replace
them with 5/32 in. or 4 mm OD tubing.
13. Make sure all sampling valves are closed and all
fluid shutoff valves are fully open.
14. Before you begin production, clear the system of
solvent and prime it with material.
a. Go to Mix mode.
b. Trigger the gun into a grounded metal pail until
mixed material flows from the gun nozzle.
c. To begin operation, see Start Up, page 50.
