The following screen appears:
5.
- Start application
⇨
During application, the number of impulses will be counted on the “CALIBRATION – Main
flow meter” screen.
6.
Apply a few hundred litres. Do not fully empty the tank. This prevents air bubbles from forming
and distorting the results.
7.
- Stop the application.

No impulses are counted on the display.
8.
- Stop calibration.

You have calibrated the flow meter with the tank method.
Calibrating the flow meter with the nozzle method
When calibrating the flow meter using the nozzle method, you determine the average quantity of the
liquid applied through a nozzle in a specific time.
When calibrating using this method, you must apply clean water over the entire working width and
measure the applied quantity on different nozzles using a measuring cup.
The flow meter measures the impulses during this time.
When you have finished the application, you must enter how much water was applied on average by
one nozzle in one minute.
The computer calculates the number of impulses per litre.
