C.F. = .013369 / 250 = .000053476


On the factoring P.C.B.:

Set S6 #5 ‘ON’ (

↓ Position) (moves decimal point right 4 places

Set S2@5, S3@3, S4@4, S5@8 (.5348 rounding fourth digit)

Set S1 in ‘0’ Position (0.5348) on the IT150I P.C.B.



Field Correction of Calibration Factor

To adjust the calibration factor to reflect the turbine’s actual response to the operating conditions,
incorporate the following formula:

New C.F =

Actual Quantity

x Present C.F.

Displayed Quantity


Example #8: Actual = 50

Displayed = 52

C.F. = .4000

New C.F.= 50/52 x .4000

= .9615 x .4000

= .3846


On the factoring P.C.B.:

Set S2@3, S3@8, S4@4, S5@6


In the above example, .9615 denotes that the meter is operating 4% fast. Multiplying by the present C.F.
(.4000) by the Actual : Displayed Ratio (.9615) effectively reduces the error by decreasing the C.F. 4%.

Example #9: Actual = 52

Displayed = 50

C.F. = .4000


New C.F. = 52/50 x .4000

= 1.04 x .4000

= .4160


On the Factoring P.C.B.:

Set S2@4, S3@1, S4@6, S5@0


In the above example, 1.04 denotes that the meter is operating 4% slow. Multiplying the present C.F.
(.4000) by the Actual : Displayed Ratio (1.04) effectively reduces the error by increasing the C.F. 4%.
