• Concentration measurement
• Advanced Phase Measurement — liquid with gas
For these applications, set Volume Flow Type to Liquid.
Procedure
Set Volume Flow Type to Liquid.
4.3.2 Configure Volume Flow Measurement Unit for liquid applications
Display Menu → Configuration → Process Measurement → Flow Variables → Volume Flow Settings →
Units
ProLink III Device Tools → Configuration → Process Measurement → Flow → Volume Flow Rate Unit
Field communicator Device Settings → Process Configuration → Volume Flow Rate → Volume Flow Rate Unit
Volume Flow Measurement Unit specifies the unit of measurement that will be displayed for the volume flow
rate. The unit used for the volume total and volume inventory is based on this unit.
Prerequisites
Before you configure Volume Flow Measurement Unit, ensure that Volume Flow Type is set to Liquid.
Procedure
Set Volume Flow Measurement Unit to the unit you want to use.
Default: l/sec (liters per second)
Tip
If the measurement unit you want to use is not available, you can define a special measurement unit.
Options for Volume Flow Measurement Unit for liquid applications
The transmitter provides a standard set of measurement units for Volume Flow Measurement Unit, plus one
user-defined measurement unit. Different communications tools may use different labels for the units.
