Model 1500 Transmitters with the Filling and Dosing Application
Required Transmitter Configuration
4.4.3 Density units
The default density measurement unit is
g/cm3. See Table 4-3 for a complete list of density
measurement units.
4.4.4 Temperature units
The default temperature measurement unit is
degC. See Table 4-6 for a complete list of temperature
measurement units.
4.4.5 Pressure units
Configuring the pressure unit is required only if pressure compensation will be implemented. See
Section 9.2.
4.5 Configuring the mA output
The mA output can be used either to report the mass flow or volume flow process variable or to
control a valve for the filling and dosing application.
Configuring the mA output for valve control is discussed in Section 7.4.
Note: If the mA output is configured for valve control, it cannot be used to report alarm status, and
the mA output will never go to fault levels.
