Standardised calibration value
The crank turns listed in the table (Fig. 69)
were determined during a calibration run on a
standardized field with the control
terminal.
On fields with more or less slippage, the cali-
bration value [pul./100 m] deviates from the
standardized calibration value. This also
changes the number of crank turns in the ta-
ble (Fig. 69)
. Before starting work, carry out a
calibration run on the field as described in the
"" operating manual.
Standardised calibration value [pul./100m]
for Cataya Special with star wheel
Fig. 69
If the calibration value you have determined differs from the standardized calibration value [pul./100 m],
recalculate the number of crank turns for calibrating the seed rate:
Crank turns = Crank turns (from table) x
Determined calibration value [pul./100 m]
Calibration value from the table [pul./100 m]
Then calibrate the seed rate with the calculated number of crank turns.
Example:
Seed drill: ................................................................................................... Cataya 3000
Working width: ........................................................................................... 3.0 m
Crank turns (table value, Fig. 68): ............................................................. 18.5
Calibration value pul./100 m (table value, Fig. 69): ................................... 636 (pul./100 m)
Calibration value pul./100 m (determined):................................................ 688 (pul./100 m)
Crank turns = 18.5 x
688 [pul./100 m]
= 20.0
636 [imp./100 m]
Calibrate the seed rate in our example with 20.0 crank turns.
