■ Integration options for backflow
If there is a reverse flow, the operation of the MCF depends upon the integration
option settings, as indicated below.
Note: In each case, the integrated reverse flow rate can be checked on the informa-
tion display.

Reverse flow counter
When there is a reverse flow, the MCF stops the normal flow counter and starts
the reverse flow counter. When normal flow resumes, the MCF subtracts
the normal flow from the reverse flow counter until the counter reaches 0.
Thereafter the normal flow is added to the normal flow counter.
