6.2.3 How to characterize
To characterize the flowmeter:
• Refer to Figure 6-4.
• Ensure that the correct sensor type is configured.
• Set required parameters, as listed in Table 6-1.
Figure 6-4 Characterizing the flowmeter
6.3 Configuring the channels
See the Configuration and Use Manual Supplement for your transmitter for information and
instructions on channel configuration.
6.4 Configuring the measurement units
For the following process variables, the transmitter must be configured to use the
measurement unit appropriate to your application:
• Mass flow
•Volume flow
• Density
• Pressure (optional)
The measurement units used for totalizers and inventories are assigned automatically, based on the
measurement unit configured for the corresponding process variable. For example, if
kg/hr (kilograms
per hour) is configured for mass flow, the unit used for the mass totalizer and mass inventory is
kg
(kilograms).
To configure measurement units, refer to the flowcharts in Figure 6-5.
