FlowTrak II Console Func tions
The FlowTrak II features a large, easy-to-read liquid crystal display, easy-to-use rotary dial and lighted panel for night use.
VOLUME/MINUTE:
Displays total
gallons (liters) of liquid applied per
minute, or lbs. (kg) NH3 per minute.
TANK:
In normal operation,
displays gallons (liters) of
liquid remaining or lbs. (kg) of
NH3 remaining. Can also be
used as a Fill flow counter for
batching operations, see Special
Calibration and Operation
sections.
TANK ALARM:
Used to calibrate the tank alarm set point in
gallons (liters), lbs (kgs) NH3
TANK VOL:
Used to calibrate the tank volume in gallons
(liters), lbs (kgs) NH3.
TARGET RATE:
Used in calibration mode to enter the target
application rate (GPA/LPH) or lbs/acre (kg/hectare) N.
RATE:
Displays application rate
GPA(LPH), or lbs. N/acre (kg of N/
hectare).
AREA (1) (2) (3):
Keeps a running count of the total acres
(hectares) (thousands of square feet) worked. May be reset.
(Note: VOLUME and AREA counters work in pairs, if AREA
counter 1 is reset, it also resets VOLUME counter 1.)
DISTANCE:
Displays distance traveled
in feet (meters). May be reset.
AREA/HOUR:
Displays current
work rate in acres per hour
(hectares per hour) (thousands of
square feet per hour).
WIDTH CAL:
Used in calibration mode to enter the working
width of your sprayer booms or other equipment.
SPEED:
Displays ground speed
in miles per hour (kilometers per
hour).
SPEED CAL:
Used in calibration mode to enter the speed
calibration number in inches (cm) per pulse.
TEST SPEED:
Used in calibration mode to enter a test speed
in miles per hour (kilometers per hour).
MIN FLOW:
Used in the calibration mode to enter
the minimum flow rate (GPM/LPM) of the spray boom.
Caution: See page 23 for detailed instructions.
VOLUME (1) (2) (3):
Displays total gallons (liters) or lbs. (kg)
of NH3 applied. May be reset. (Note: VOLUME and AREA
counters work in pairs, if VOLUME counter 1 is reset, it also
resets AREA counter 1.)
FLOW CAL:
Used in calibration mode to enter the calibration
value assigned to your flowmeter (See Flowmeter Tag)
WARNING LIGHT:
Indicates
over or under application of
10% of the Target Rate, or below
min flow or tank set point.
Also lit when in CAL.
