Calibrating a Krohne flow meter

 

A Krohne flow meter is an analog device. Calibration is very similar to the 220B with Analog
Transmitter (Model 310), except that the Krohne meter has a different table to use to determine the

maximum GPM @ 20 mA.

There are two ways to calibrate the flow, with or without a 4-20 ma signal generator. It is a lot easier

with the signal generator.

 

Calibration Procedure with a signal generator

 

1) With no flow, record the counts in raw data (:22) and enter that value in Min Raw (:62) and MinIn

(:72).

 

2) Remove the Krohne meter input wires at the PLC and connect your signal generator.

 

3) Generate a 20 mA signal.

 

4) Record the counts in raw data (:22) and enter that value in MaxIn (:82).

 

5) Disconnect the signal generator and reconnect the Krohne meter wiring.

 

6) Enter 0 in MinOut (:92).

 

7) Use the Krohne Meter Calibration chart above. Select the correct Krohne Meter size. Go to the

Max GPM @ 20 mA column and record that number in MaxOut (:102).
