3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
3.2.2 Volume conversion (optional)
The integrated volume conversion converts the measured gas volume from measurement
conditions to base conditions.
Calculation according to EN 12405:
The measurement conditions are either determined with pressure and temperature
sensors or entered as fixed value.
