GENERAL
The RF meter is designed specifically to be used with the
LFC 2000 and LFC 2500 wireless Fluid Inventory Control and
Management Systems. The RF Meter will dispense bulk
fluids for servicing automobiles, trucks, buses, construction
equipment, and similar applications. The meter is lightweight,
rugged and has a comfortable grip. The meter is designed
specifically to dispense motor oils (S.A.E. 5-50), gear oils
(S.A.E. 80-240), automatic transmission fluid, and hydraulic
fluid.
A superior rugged, shock-resistant design for demanding
environments.
METER IS NOT FOR RESALE MEASUREMENT OF FLUID.
OPERATION
This unit can be programmed to dispense in quarts, liters,
pints, and gallons. A 5-digit liquid crystal display, accurate to
the second decimal point, shows the exact amount of fluid
dispensed.
The RF meter uses 4 replaceable AA batteries and is cali-
brated at the factory. The meter can also be recalibrated
easily in the field for a fluid of different viscosity.
LINCOLN'S FLUID INVENTORY CONTROL AND
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Lincoln's Fluid Inventory Control and Management Systems
have been designed to offer greater control over the dispens-
ing of fluids with significant reductions in installation costs
and the associated hardware common to most hard-wired
systems today. Dispensing information and authority is
communicated from the keypad to the meter with actual
dispensing information being communicated back to the
keypad utilizing 902-928 Mhz frequency hopping spread
spectrum radio communications.
Tracking of all dispenses, by PIN number, Work Order
number, fluid type, Meter/Hose number allows the software to
compute the remaining fluid balances.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Fleet Maintenance Shops
Industrial Assembly
Quick Lube Facilities
Dealerships
Construction and Mining Equipment
General Automotive Service Centers
Specialty Service and Repair Shops
IMPORTANT NOTE: The automatic nozzle requires 60 PSI to
open and function properly. A pump exceeding 60 PSI is
required for adequate flow and proper operation. A pump ratio
of at least 3:1 is recommended.

  • Page 16: Calculate Scale Factor

    ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ CALCULATE SCALE FACTOR A Scale Factor is a number used to adjust meter accuracy. The Scale Factor is set at the factory using motor oil with a viscosity of 10W. The primary use for Scale Factor recalibration is to batch fluids with different viscosities. If the fluid has a lower viscosity, more fluid can slip past the meter gears without being detected.
