Compensated K-factor

ProLink III
The compensated K-factor is based on the reference K-factor as compensated for the
given process temperature, wetted materials, body number, and pipe ID. Compensated K-
factor is an informational variable that is calculated by the electronics of the flow meter.
The reference K-factor is factory set and is displayed on the support tube label. The
reference K-factor should only be re-configured in the device in the event of transmitter
replacement. Contact technical support for details.
