Optional Configuration continued
8.4.2 Special mass flow unit
To create a special mass flow measurement unit:
1. Specify the base mass unit.
2. Specify the base time unit.
3. Specify the mass flow conversion factor.
4. Assign a name to the new special mass flow measurement unit.
5. Assign a name to the mass totalizer measurement unit.
Note: You cannot create a special mass flow measurement unit with the display, but you can view the
special mass flow measurement on the display.
8.4.3 Special volume flow unit
To create a special volume flow measurement unit:
1. Specify the base volume unit.
2. Specify the base time unit.
3. Specify the volume flow conversion factor.
4. Assign a name to the new special volume flow measurement unit.
5. Assign a name to the volume totalizer measurement unit.
Note: You cannot create a special volume flow measurement unit with the display, but you can view
the special volume flow measurement on the display.
8.4.4 Special unit for gas
For many gas applications, standard or normal volume flow rate is used as the quasi
mass flow rate. Standard or normal volume flow rate is calculated as the mass flow
rate divided by the density of the gas at a reference condition.
To configure a mass flow special unit that represents standard or normal volume
flow rate, you must calculate the mass flow conversion factor from the density of the
gas at a reference temperature, pressure, and composition.
ProLink II offers a Gas Unit Configurator tool to calculate this mass flow
conversion factor. The tool will automatically update the mass flow conversion factor in the
Special
Units
tab. If ProLink II is not available, special mass units can be used to set up standard or normal
volume flow units for gas applications.
Note: Micro Motion recommends that you do not use the flowmeter to measure actual volume flow of
a gas (volumetric flow at line conditions). If you need to measure actual volume flow, contact Micro
Motion customer support.
CAUTION
The flowmeter should not be used for measuring the
actual volume of gases.
Standard or normal volume is the traditional unit for gas
flow. Coriolis flowmeters measure mass. Mass divided by
standard or normal density yields standard or normal
volume units.
