Abstract

A method of configuring a flow control valve of a mixing system may comprise establishing a flow loop via a pump, a flow control valve, and a flow rate sensor. The method may also include performing a valve configuration process that includes positioning the flow control valve in a first position, operating the pump to communicate a fluid via the flow loop at a first speed, measuring a first periodic dataset while the fluid is communicated via the flow loop, and recording the first periodic dataset. The method may also include comparing a result of the valve configuration process to a valve position dataset and an operational indicator set and determining an pass/fail status based upon the comparison, and outputting, by the unit controller, indicia of the pass/fail status of the mixing system via the input output device.
