Configure Flow Meter Settings
The accuracy of the PCF volume reporting depends on
precise adjustment of the K-factor(s). The fluid plate
uses the K-factor(s) to calculate the volume dispensed.
If the set value is not correct, the system still delivers
repeatable flow rates; however, the reported value may
not be correct. See Verify Flow Meter Calibration,
page 42, for additional K-factor information.
Table 5: Flow Meter K-Factors
Set Flow Meter K-Factor
NOTE: In systems without a flow meter, the flow meter
settings will be grayed out.
1. With the system in setup mode, navigate to the Fluid
Plate x, screen 4 (Pressure Loop and Flowmeter Set-
tings).
2. Press to access the fields to make changes.
3. Press to open the Meter Type drop-down list,
and select the meter type used by the system.
Select Volume for volumetric flow meters or Mass
for mass flow meters. Press to enter the selec-
tion.
4. Press to move to the K-Factor field. Key in the
K-factor value. See Table 5: Flow Meter K-Factors
for values. Press to enter the value.
5. Press to exit edit mode.
NOTE: If necessary, verify flow meter calibration. See
Verify Flow Meter Calibration, page 42, for instruc-
tions.
Configure Pressure Loop
Settings
The PCF system uses variables (Kp, Ki, and Kd) in the
software calculations to accurately and precisely control
the fluid pressure.
NOTE: It is recommended that these values are not
changed from the factory defaults of 32.00 for Kp,
128.00 for Ki, and 0.00 for Kd. However, if the values
need to be adjusted, see Manually Adjust Control
Loop Parameters on page 43.
