BC-502/CRC

(Gallons Calibration) is used to calibrate the pump for compensation in
pump wear or variables in material
viscosity. The pump is used as a meter to
control the amount of material applied.
Each revolution of the pump delivers a
calculated amount of product. Because this
amount can change over the life of the
pump or a drastic change in viscosity of the
material, the G-Cal can be adjusted to suit.
The most common cause of a light spread
rate is plugged or dirty screens. Always
check and clean screens prior to
adjustment. If the pump is worn, it may begin to slip or leak internally
resulting in a light spread rate. High viscosity materials can have a similar
effect so remember that viscosity in asphalt can increase or get thicker
when it gets colder. It is a bad idea to change the G-Cal to compensate for
equipment neglect (plugged screens) or poor material handling (letting
asphalt get cold). It is an even worse idea to make G-Cal adjustments on
short shots (1000 gallons or less). Start compensating by increasing or
decreasing the spread rate (GSY Inc/Dec). If a change in spread has no
effect, then screens are plugged or you are over speeding the pump
(driving too fast). If an increase or decrease in spread rate solves the
problem, your G-Cal needs adjustment.
You have increased or decreased your spread rate and the output is
correct. Prior to the next shot, you remembered to zero the gallons used
on the home page and take note of the gallons or level on the tank gauge.
You spread a measured distance by a continuous width and the gallons
used on the home page is wrong but the outside tank gauge reads the
difference (proper gallons used) correctly.
a.
Do not make any changes on the Home Page.
b.
Press Next to scroll to the Settings Menu and select Cal-1 then
press OK.
c.
Select to highlight G-Cal.
d.
A pop-up window will display Calibrate GPM and Gallons Used.
e.
Press Edit and use the Up/Down buttons to change the Gallons
Used window to match the actual difference in gallons used on
the outside Tank Gauge.
