Flow Calibration
The ONICON Calibration Lab maintains instrument calibration data on every flow meter.
Calibration files include details on process conditions, customer gas, line size and
other information. All NIST-traceable equipment utilized for the calibration procedure is
identified on the Calibration Certificate, which is sent with every flow meter.
Calibration records include details on process conditions, calibration fluid, line size and
other information. All NIST-traceable equipment utilized for the calibration procedure is
identified, as is the calibration history of all reference equipment.
In addition to the Calibration Certificate, a certified flow table that correlates current
outputs with scaled units of flow is produced for each calibrated device.
I/O Description
The F-5500 features a galvanically isolated 4-20mA analog output with HART
communication option and a second output for pulse, RS485 Modbus RTU or BACnet
MS/TP. There is also a mini USB port for interfacing with a laptop or computer. The
4-20mA output can be configured for flow rate or process gas temperature and can be
scaled by the user. The pulse output can be used for pulse or alarm, is programmable
to represent flow rate and can be scaled for units per pulse at a maximum pulse output
frequency of 1 Hz.
F-5000 View™ interfaces to the USB port and is a free PC-based software program
that displays flow meter readings and permits flow meter configuration. The software
is available for download on the ONICON website. Industry standard communication
options are available including optional RS485 Modbus RTU, BACnet MS/TP, or HART.
NOTE: the latest version of the F-5000 View software is available for download at
