Feeder Calibration
Overview
Introduction
Calibration frequency
There is no set time frequency for performing this calibration. If you need
to determine that the feeder meets your process accuracy requirements you
will need to take actual catch samples and compare them to the desired
setpoint. These catch samples may be multiple timed samples compared
to the setpoint or a single large sample of material compared to the
displayed totalizer value on the KSU. We will show the concept of Run
Charts as a method to help determine calibration frequency.

Overview, Continued
REF: If the determined span is not within the range of 0.90 to 1.1 or the
span results are not repeatable, you may wish to refer to one of the
following documents, depending on the type of scale you have, in order to
troubleshoot the weighing system.
Please note that only SFTs with revision "N" and above are supported by the
SCM.

Feeder Calibration
Introduction
This section shows you how to perform all of the calibration procedures
that permit the feeder to reach its design performance.
Step Action
You should properly empty and clean the feeder. To empty the
feeder:
a) Shut-off material flow onto the belt.
b) Select a setpoint.
c) Select Emptying function in the New Material Menu, and
press the enter key.
1
In the New Material Menu, select Static Tare and Press ENTER
2 twice. A static tare value will be accepted and it will be used to
validate the dynamic belt tare that is used for running the
machine. Press <ESC> to exit.
While in the New Material Menu, select Belt Tare and press the
Enter key twice. This starts the dynamic belt tare. The feeder will
stop automatically when the dynamic belt tare is finished.
KSU/WBF.942.001-E.e Page 11 / 93
____________________________________________________
Step Action
The feeder will begin to run and when the tare cycle is finished,
4
the feeder will stop.
Record the value of <tare value> for future reference as shown in
5
the Tare variable in the Scale Menu, Main Deck Sub-Menu.
Record the data point on the Zero/Tare Run Chart. This will be
6
the Static Tare value so some inaccuracies will likely be observed.

Introduction
You can use this simple approach to quickly check the flowrate of your
feeder and verify its accuracy.
Step Action
The necessary material quantity for the material tests is determined as
follows:
Accuracy to be achieved = e.g. 0.5 %
Resolution (measurement increment step) of the scale used for the
check weighing (customer) = e.g. 20 Kg
1 The weighing accuracy of the check weigh scale must be 2 x higher
than the accuracy to be achieved.
Measurement increment step * 100 * 2 / accuracy to be achieved =
necessary material quantity (batch size). In our example: 20 * 100 * 2
/ 0.5 = 8000 Kg minimum
Obviously, the more the material quantity exceeds the calculated value,
the better the weighing accuracy. On the other hand, the min. material test
2
time must not be less than 3 minutes, nor the time required for the band to
perform a complete revolution.
If the material transport route after the weigh belt feeder includes
3 equipment such as screw conveyors, belt conveyors, chutes etc., the dead
zones of this equipment must be filled by operating the installation.
Prepare a container (truck), large enough to hold the material quantity
4
calculated under point 1
Weigh or detare the empty container. If it's a truck, weigh the empty
truck, without the driver and take into account the distance between the
check weigh scale (customer) and the material test site. A heavy duty
5
truck consumes approx. 30 to 50 litres of fuel per hour. At a fuel density of
0.88kg/l, one hour of running already accounts for an error of 0.55% on a
8000kg batch.
6 Reset the KSU totalizer to zero.
7 Make sure that the container is in place and that it's totally empty.
8 Put the feeder in Gravimeteric mode by pressing the GRAV key.
9 Select a setpoint between 20 and 100% of the nominal flowrate.
KSU/WBF.942.001-E.e Page 14 / 93
____________________________________________________
Step Action
Start the machine until the desired batch size has been reached,
10
then stop.
Weigh the container. If it's a truck, weigh it without the driver and
take into account the fuel consumption (see point 5).
11
Define the net material weight, subtracting the previously
weighed empty weight from the now measured gross weight.
12 Read the totalizer = Totalizer KSU.
Calculate the new span setting from the following equation:
New Span, (Scale Menu, Main Deck sub-menu) = =

Introduction
This section provides some diagnostics for weigh belt feeder applications.
For maintenance technicians only.
All the status functions are given below for the purpose of noting readings.
Entry Definition
CALIB STATUS Gives the status of the various feeder tares and calibrations
STATE Gives the step number of the cycle in progress for the
MACHINES different tare and regulation functions
BELT MVT Provides information on speeds and effective index
positions.
BELT PARMS Provides information on weight spaces, belt, belt index, slip
index.
BELT TARE Provides information on segmented tare.
DEBUG 3 Gives the gross feedrate used by the PID regulator.
INPUT/OUTPUT Gives the physical position of inputs and outputs on the
SCM.
SIMULATION Allows weighed hopper weight simulation to be performed.
Entry Definition
WB A display reading “----“means non calibrated. “O.K.”
indicates that weigh deck calibration has been correctly
performed.
BELT A display reading “----“means non calibrated. “O.K.”
indicates that tare of empty belt has been correctly
performed.
HOPPER A display reading “----“means non calibrated. “O.K.”
indicates that hopper calibration has been correctly
performed.
