Effect of flow direction on mA output: LRV < 0
Example 1
Configuration:
Flow direction = Forward Only
mA output: LRV = 0 g/s; URV = 100 g/s
(See the first graph in Figure 4-1.)
As a result:
Under conditions of zero flow, the mA output of the transmitter is 
12 mA.
Under conditions of reverse flow, the mA output saturates at 
11.9 mA.
Under conditions of forward flow, up to a flow rate of 100 g/s, the 
mA output of the transmitter varies between 12 mA and 20 mA in 
proportion to (the absolute value of) the flow rate.
Under conditions of forward flow, if (the absolute value of) the flow 
rate equals or exceeds 100 g/s, the mA output will be proportional 
to the flow rate up to 20.5 mA, and will be level at 20.5 mA at 
higher flow rates.
