1 TOTAL
1.8 PREVIOUS DAY
TOTAL
Shows the amount/volume of totalized product between the last contract
hour and the contract hour before that. This totalizer cannot be reset to
zero.
See Section 4.4.3: Current day total and Previous day total[»16] for
information on reviewing more historical day totals.
5.5.2 MENU 2: FLOWRATE
First set up the flowmeter in
SETUP
4: FLOWMETER as this directly affects the settings/measurement
units in this menu (Flowrate).
If the type of flowmeter unit is changed in
SETUP
4.2: FLOWMETER > UNITS or 4.3: FLOWMETER > UNIT, the
units in 2.1: FLOWRATE > UNIT will change to the default setting of the selected flowmeter.
If the settings in
SETUP
2.1: FLOWRATE > UNIT, 2.2: FLOWRATE > TIME, or 2.3: FLOWRATE > DECIMALS are
changed, this will directly affect the analog output settings in 7.2: ANALOG OUTPUT > RATE MIN (4MA),
7.3: ANALOG OUTPUT > RATE MAX (20MA), and the displayed bargraph in 3.6: DISPLAY > RATESPAN.
Therefore, you should first determine the required settings for the flowrate.
2 FLOWRATE
2.1 UNIT
Determines the measurement unit for the flowrate. The type of unit that can
be selected depends on the flowmeter unit (volumetric or mass) selected in
4.2: FLOWMETER > UNITS.
The following can be selected:
AUTO-VOL: mL - L - m3 - US GAL - I GAL - cf - Oil bbl - nL - nm3 - scf
AUTO-MAS: mg - g - kg - ton - lb - US ton
Hand: mL - L - m3 - US GAL - I GAL - cf - Oil bbl - nL - nm3 - scf - mg - g -
kg - ton - lb - US ton - rev - P - (no unit)
2.2 TIME
Determines the time interval (sec, min, hour or day) for calculating the
flowrate.
2.3 DECIMALS
Determines the number of decimals for the flowrate.
2.4 K-FACTOR
This value is used to convert the flowmeter pulse signals to a flowrate unit.
The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by the flowmeter
per measurement unit selected in 2.1: FLOWRATE > UNIT.
The more accurate the K-factor, the more accurate the system.
This setting can only be changed if the automatic unit conversion in
SETUP
4.2: FLOWMETER > UNITS is set to Hand. Otherwise, K-factor conversion will be
Auto.
After pressing PROG, the decimal point will start to flash. The decimal
position can then be changed by pressing the SELECT-key, then press the
CLEAR key to set the digits.
2.5 CALCULATION
The flowrate is calculated by measuring the time between a number of
pulses, for example 10 pulses. The more pulses measured, the more
accurate the flowrate.
This setting directly influences the update time for the analog output
(maximum update 8 times a second). If the output response is too slow,
decrease the number of pulses.
The lower the number of pulses, the higher the power consumption of
the unit will be (important for battery powered applications).
For low frequency applications (below 10 Hz), do not program more than
10 pulses, otherwise the update time will be very slow. For
high‑frequency applications (above 1 kHz), enter a value of 50 pulses or
more.
Keep in mind that values higher than 200 in combination with low
frequencies will result in slow updates of the indicated flowrate and
analog output.
