The Smith Meter AccuLoad III -Q is a microprocessor-
based electronic instrument that can be configured to be
either a one-, two-, three-, or four-arm device, depend-
ing on the programming and software package of the
unit. When programmed as a single-arm unit, it is ca-
pable of loading a straight product, up to six products as
a sequential blender, up to four products as a ratio
blender, or two products as a side stream blend. When
set up as a two-arm unit, it is capable of loading two
straight products, two arms each up to six products as a
sequential blender, two two-product ratio blenders, two
two-product side stream blender, or a combination of
these configurations. When programmed as a three-arm
device, it is capable of loading three straight products,
three arms each up to six products as a sequential
blender, one two-product ratio blender, or one two-prod-
uct side stream blender, and a combination of sequential
or straight product loading. When programmed as a Applications
four-arm device, it is capable of loading either four straight
products or four arms of up to six products as a sequen- Applications include batch loading of alcohols, gasolines,
