Effects of flow direction
For the effect of Flow Direction on the mA output (i.e., a flow variable has been assigned to the mA
output):
output):
•
See Figure 4-1 if the LRV is set to 0 (zero flow).
•
See Figure 4-2 if the LRV is set to a negative value.
In both figures, the mA output scale is 12–20 mA. If your installation includes the Micro Motion
adapter-barrier, adjust the y axis as follows:
adapter-barrier, adjust the y axis as follows:
•
URV = 20 mA
•
Midpoint = 12 mA
•
LRV = 4 mA
For a discussion of these figures, see the examples following the figures.
For the effect of Flow Direction on totalizers and the flow values reported via digital communications,
see Table 4-2.
see Table 4-2.
