    OPERATION Determining the K-factor: The K-factor value is needed to convert the sensor’s output pulsed into volume or rate data. The graphs located on the back of the Quick Start Guide show K-factor values for many versions of water lines. By knowing the line you are using or the inside diameter of the line, you can determine this value.
