10.10 CB-2 Loss In Weight Open/Close

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

open and close the inching 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.
