10.9 CB-2 Loss In Weight Inching Gate

When configuring the CB-2 for an inching gate it is important to know the time in seconds required to fully open

and close the gate. Manually open the discharge gate and record the amount of time in seconds required to fully

open the gate. Repeat a few times for accuracy. Average the time readings and this number will represent the

“fully open time” for the gate. This process can be reversed to calculate the “fully closed time”.
