Figure 2-30: Flow Rate Custom Units - Mass/Volume and Time Conversion Example
Under the Custom Units Setup heading, the user may configure a custom unit for the flow
rate measurement. Custom units allow the flow rate to be displayed in units of measure
that are not standard in the Rosemount 3051SMV.

Energy rate
About this task
Mass and energy flow Fast Keys
1, 4, 1, 2
(Fully compensated mass and energy flow feature board only)
Note
Energy Rate calculations are only available for certain fluid types.
The Energy tab allows the user to configure the settings associated with the energy flow.
• Under the Energy Rate Setup heading, edit the Energy Rate Units and Damping values
as needed. The energy rate calculation within the device uses undamped process
variables. Energy rate damping is set independently of flow rate damping and
measured process variables.
• Under the Custom Units Setup heading, the user may configure a custom unit for the
energy rate measurement. Custom units allow the energy rate to be displayed in units
of measure that are not standard in the Rosemount 3051SMV.
Note
If the energy rate is configured as the primary variable and is being output via the 4-20 mA
signal, verify the 4–20 mA range (LRV and URV) after completing the custom unit
configuration. For more information on verifying the 4–20 mA range, see Basic device
configuration.
Follow these steps to configure a custom unit:
