Meter Calibration
Calibrate the meter:
• The first time the system is operated.
• Whenever new materials are used in the system,
especially if the materials have viscosities that differ
significantly.
• At least once per month as part of regular mainte-
nance.
• Whenever a flow meter is serviced or replaced.
NOTE:
• K-Factors on the Calibration Screen are
updated automatically after the calibration pro-
cedure is completed.
• K-Factor values on the screen are viewable
only. If needed, you can manually edit the
K-Factors in Advanced Setup Screen 4 (see
page 37) or Recipe Setup Screen 5 (page 42).
• All values on this screen are in cc, independent
of the units set in Configure Screen 1.
• The controller will use the active recipe
K-factors for meter calibration. The active recipe
must be recipe 1 to recipe 60. Recipes 0 and 61
do not have K-factor values.

bration Screen. Press
the Enter key to select
Dose Valve A. Press the Down Arrow

select Start from the menu. Start only one at a time.
6. Dispense a minimum of 250 cc into beaker; make
sure enough material is dispensed to accurately
read the volume with your beaker.
7. The volume that the ProControl 1KS measured dis-
plays on the EasyKey.
