4.1 Configure mass flow measurement
The mass flow measurement parameters control how mass flow is measured and reported.
4.1.1 Configure Mass Flow Measurement Unit
ProLink III Device Tools > Configuration > Process Measurement > Flow

Overview
Mass Flow Measurement Unit specifies the unit of measure that will be used for the mass
flow rate. The unit used for mass total and mass inventory is derived from this unit.
Any selected measurement unit, (mass, volume or gas standard volume), is automatically
applied to both the mA and Frequency Outputs.
Procedure
Set Mass Flow Measurement Unit to the unit you want to use.
The default setting for Mass Flow Measurement Unit is g/sec (grams per second).
Tip
If the measurement unit you want to use is not available, you can define a special measurement unit.
Options for Mass Flow Measurement Unit
The transmitter provides a standard set of measurement units for Mass Flow Measurement
Unit, plus one user-defined special measurement unit. Different communications tools
may use different labels for the units.
