Configure process measurement
Procedure
1.
Specify
Sensor Type
.
•
Straight-tube
(T-Series)
•
Curved-tube
(all sensors except T-Series)
2.
Set the flow characterization parameters. Be sure to include all decimal points.
• For straight-tube sensors, set
FCF
(
Flow Cal
or
Flow Calibration Factor
),
FTG
, and
FFQ
.
• For curved-tube sensors, set
Flow Cal
(
Flow Calibration Factor
).
3.
Set the density characterization parameters.
• For straight-tube sensors, set
D1
,
D2
,
DT
,
DTG
,
K1
,
K2
,
FD
,
DFQ1
, and
DFQ2
.
• For curved-tube sensors, set
D1
,
D2
,
TC
,
K1
,
K2
, and
FD
. (
TC
is sometimes shown as
DT
.)
5.1.1
Sources and formats for characterization parameters
Different sensor tags display characterization parameters differently, and older sensors may not have all
the required parameters on the tag.
Sample sensor tags
Sample sensor tags are shown in the following illustrations:
• Figure 5-1 : Older curved-tube sensors (all sensors except T-Series)
• Figure 5-2 : Newer curved-tube sensors (all sensors except T-Series)
• Figure 5-3 : Older straight-tube sensors (T-Series)
• Figure 5-4 : Newer straight-tube sensors (T-Series)
