Material test
Calibration of the flowmeter by test weight is not a dynamic simulation and yields only an
approximate span calibration. Effective material flow, friction, and velocity can only be
reproduced by running actual material tests.
At least two 5 minute samples should be taken to ensure repeatability. Refer to material test and
subsequent factoring of the flowmeter sections of the integrator manual.
