2 Instrument description
2.6 Integrator
In addition to minimum, maximum and average value of an (analog) channel in
a group, the reports can include an integrator.
Activating the
integrator
An integrator time base has to be specified at the configuration level under
Configuration
Î Analog inputs Î Analog input 1 — 12 Î Additional
parameters, or Configuration
Î Analog inputs Î External input 1 — 36 Î
Additional parameters. If no time base is given (Off), the indication of the
integrator in the reports is suppressed.
The integrator can be used to determine a total flow volume or a liquid level,
for instance, and to present it in the diagram.
Example A sensor at analog input 1 provides a signal that is proportional to the flow rate
(m
3
/h). The volume (m
3
) which has passed through is to be measured using
the integrator.
The following settings are required:
