The K factor is the number of pulses the ow
sensor provides to the FT430/440/450 for every
gallon of ow. (Note that the decimal is xed at
three places. If you only have two decimal places
for your K-factor, enter a zero for the third digit.
If unable to set K-factor, the unit is “locked”
to prevent tampering. Please contact your
distributor for assistance.)
