Signet 8150 Flow Totalizer
The AutoCAL feature allows theTotalizer to be adjusted to
match the flow rate to any external reference.
•
Flow in the pipe should be as stable as possible for best
results.
•
If the flow rate display is erratic, set the SPEED
(page 15) to 120 seconds during the AutoCAL procedure.
•
The timebase on the reference meter must be the same as
the 8150 Totalizer.
Example: The Totalizer flow rate shows 60 GPM, while
an external reference indicates a true flow
rate of 70 GPM. Change the flow rate from
60 GPM to 70 GPM using AutoCAL.
1. Hold the ENTER key for 2 seconds, then enter the
SECURITY CODE. AutoCAL is the first item in the menu.
2. Press the ► key to select the AutoCAL function.
The display will show AutoCAL and the current flow rate
will be flashing.
3. Press the ► key again to change the flow rate. The
display shows "Set Flo" and the first digit of the flow rate
will begin flashing.
4. Press the ► key to advance the flashing element to
the "6".
5. Press the ▲ key one time to change the "6" to "7".
6. Press the ENTER key to complete the automatic
calibration process. The display shows a new K-Factor
with the first digit flashing. This K-Factor is based on the
change in flow rate.
7. Press the ENTER key again to accept the new value.
NOTE:
If the display shows
"ERR SetFlo"
the procedure
was unsuccessful because the calculated K-Factor is less
than 0.001 or greater than 999999. Verify the flow rate and
start the AutoCAL procedure from step 1.
8. Press ▲ and ▼ keys together to store the new value in
the memory. The display will show "storing" for a few
seconds, then return to normal operation.

The K-Factor is the number of pulses generated by the flow
sensor for each measure of water that moves past the sensor.
Your flow sensor manual contains K-Factor data in terms of
U.S. gallons and liters.
Locate the K-Factor that matches your pipe size material.
If necessary, you can convert the K-Factor into other units
of measure. The minimum K-Factor value is 0.001, maximum
is 999999.
Example: Change the Flow K-Factor from
060.000 to 095.000
1. Hold the ENTER key for 2 seconds, then enter the
SECURITY CODE. (Factory default is 0-0-0-0)
The display shows the first item in the menu (AutoCAL).
2. Press the ▼ key to scroll to the Flow K-Factor
(the display shows the current K-Factor setting).
3. Press the ► key to select the Flow K-Factor for editing.
(The first element of the K-Factor will begin flashing.)
4. Press the ► key 1 time to advance the flashing
element to the "6".
5. Press the ▲ key three times to change the "6" to "9".
6. Press the ► key to advance the flashing element to
the "0."
7. Press the ▼ key five times to change the "0" to "5".
8. Press the ENTER key to return to the
CALIBRATE menu.
9. Press ▲ and ▼ keys together to store the new value
and return to normal operation.
