6.4.2 Volume flow units
Two different sets of volume flow measurement units are provided:
• Units typically used for liquid volume – see Table 6-3
• Units typically used for gas volume – see Table 6-4
The default liquid volume flow measurement unit is
L/s
. The default gas standard volume flow
measurement unit is
SCFM
.
By default, only liquid volume flow units are listed. To access the gas volume flow units, you must
first use ProLink II to configure Vol Flow Type. See Section 8.4.
Note: The Communicator cannot be used to configure gas volume flow units. If a volume flow unit for
gas is configured, the Communicator will display “Unknown Enumerator” for the units label.
If the volume flow unit you want to use is not listed, you can define a special measurement unit for
volume flow (see Section 8.5).
