TM 5-3895-374-10 .................................................................................................................................................................A/C Meter Calibration In the weighed load procedure, actual material is pumped into an appropriate tank truck.  The truck is then weighed and its net weight compared to the indicated computer total.  Corrections are made as necessary until the net truck and indicated computer weights are equal. The following procedural steps are concerned primarily with operation of the computer and assume that the operator has made ready the proper equipment and that the asphalt line between the RUN/DIVERT valve and the drum mixer has been replumbed  to  the  sample  truck  for  this  test,  or  that  other  suitable  and  safe  means  of  obtaining  the  sample  have  been planned for.  See also Appendix G. WARNING: Liquid asphalt at typical handling temperature is extremely dangerous and this procedure must not be attempted by anyone not trained, qualified or comfortable with the procedure, the equipment and the personnel involved. 1) Circulate the asphalt for at least thirty (30) minutes to assure product uniformity. 2) Print a current copy of the meter calibration values.  (keystrokes 8659) 3) Go to the +Asphalt Meter Calibration display.  (keystrokes 8656.00) 4) Select Option 4 to set the desired Test Parameters.  See Figure 8656.2 The Continuation Options are: OPTION KEY DESCRIPTION ESCape ESC Return to the previous display. Edit (all) Enter the test parameters shown. Specify the desired test pumping rate.  Specify the actual material density.  Specify a desired test interval that will fill the sample truck and result in a sample large enough to allow it to be weighed with sufficient accuracy.  ESCape when all the desired test Parameters have been entered. 5) Select Option .00 to display the CAUTION screen from which the totalizers can be zeroed.  Zero all totals. page F - 85 SYSTEMS Equipment Corp.  8/31/89  Page (45)
