Section III – Flow Rate Selection
MN06146 Issue/Rev. 0.1 (7/10)
4
The flow rates typically selected for proving are the
same as those used in the normal loading operation.
Q
1
: First High Flow Rate – Maximum Rate
Q
2
: Second High Flow Rate – Only used for loading
smaller tanks where Q
1
would be too high a rate
Q
3
: Low Flow Start Flow Rate – To minimize splash-
ing and/or foaming within the truck tanks
Q
4
: Minimum Flow Rate – Flow rate during the final
stage of loading
To reduce proving time and still retain most of the
improved accuracy obtainable with meter lineariza-
tion, proving may be limited to just two flow rates: Q
1
and Q
3
.
