Flowmeter Calibration
The carrier meters that are used with the system typically have to be calibrated after final installation because they are sensitve to how the liquid flows through them. We typically like to see how the total comes out over a period of 3 loads before ...
Calibration of Inductors
How to verify inductor calibration: 1. Go to manual mode (Go to Data > Mixmates > Tap on icon next to the desired Mixmate) 2. Turn on scale reading for inductor 3. Tare the weight so it says ~0 4. Measure in 2.5 gallons of water 5. Write down what ...
Managing Permissions and Location
You must have Location turned on as well as all permissions accepted for the Mixmate Apps to work. Android ties wifi and location together and will not allow the Mixmate app to connect to the machine without location. Below is a short video showing ...
Setting Drain Weight
Here is the process to set the drain weight on the inductor. Manual Mode shows the weight difference between what the drain weight is set at versus what the current weight is, so that means if the inductor is empty, you should have a negative number.
Tablet Error Codes
System Level Errors 101 - Unexpected Flow - Detects flow through a non used measurement device 102 - Failed SRAM - Master Controller memory chip failure, need new module 103 - Emergency Stop Request from Machine - Something caused emergency stop to ...
Power Module Blink Code Diagnostics
The power module now has blink codes. The number of flashes happens once every 5 seconds. The power must be cycled to clear the code. 1 blink - Low Voltage Dropout ( resets below approximately 11 volts ) - Further Details 2 blinks - Master Controller ...
Rinse pump sizing
The rinse pump is ONLY for pressurizing the inductor. Stacks are NOT to be pressurized due to overspeeding gear meters. Pump specifications: 25 gallons/min at 25 PSI. Electric: Typically a 1.5 HP pump will be sufficient Gas: Typically a 2 inch pump ...
Direct Drive Small Electric Motor Wiring ( Less than 22 Amps )
IF YOU WANT MANUAL OVERRIDE, YOU MUST WIRE THROUGH A SWITCH BOX. For small motors ( 22 amps or less ) WEG makes a low current coil motor contactor that can be directly driven from a Praxidyn module. Find on Automation Direct The part number for this ...
Terminators Required
Two (2) blue* Terminators are REQUIRED to be connected to your Mixmate CANBUS for your system to run properly. They should be placed as far apart from each other as possible. (opposite ends of the CANBUS) Pro Inductors systems have one installed ...

FLINTEC Load Cell wire colors: +Excitation (Green) +Signal (White) -Excitation (Black) -Signal (Red) Shield/Ground (Yellow) Other manufacturers may be different colors. If not known at all, use a Digital Multimeter and find the 2 that have the most ...
Mixmate power diagnostics
Check battery voltage - minimum should be 12.3 volts Check screws on back of battery disconnect switch Check fuses Pro Inductor: 15 amp (x2) in fuse panel (black box, rear top of unit) Fusion Inductor: Auto-resetting circuit breakers External ...
CAN Bus Communications Diagnostics
If you are having CAN Bus issues here are the steps to diagnose CAN issues. Terminators: With the terminator removed from the system, check there is 120 Ohms between pins 2 and 3. There should be 2 terminators in the system. ** Make sure all pins are ...
Mag meter not measuring properly
Are power, signal lights lit? Check connection, cabling, plugs are seated securely. Next check in configuration Components to make sure the flowmeter/mag meter is connected to the Module that the flowmeter is Physically connected. Basically there are ...
Slow mix time with thicker chemical(s)
When using a highly viscous chemical, it is possible to add a pump at the tote, so it can push the product into the Mixmate and move things along quicker. Make sure that the overall flowrate stays below 35 gal/min as to not damage gear meter. Lastly, ...
