Reference K-factor

Field Comm.
The reference K-factor is a factory calibration number relating the flow through the meter to the
shedding frequency measured by the electronics. Every 8600 meter manufactured by Emerson
is run through a water calibration to determine this value.
3.2.9

Flange type

Field Comm.
Flange Type enables you to specify the type of flange on the flowmeter for later reference. This
variable is preset at the factory but can be changed if necessary.

3.2.10 Mating pipe ID (Inside Diameter)
Field Comm.
The Pipe ID (Inside Diameter) of the pipe adjacent to the flowmeter can cause entrance effects
that may alter flowmeter readings. You must specify the exact inside diameter of the pipe to
correct for these effects. Enter the appropriate value for this variable.
Pipe ID values for schedule 10, 40, and 80 piping are given in
application is not one of these, you may need to contact the manufacturer for exact Pipe ID.
