Influence of medium
temperature
Mass flow and volume flow
o.f.s. = of full scale value
When there is a difference between the temperature for zero point adjustment and the process
temperature, the additional measured error of the sensor is typically ±0.0002 % o.f.s./°C (±0.0001 %
o. f.s./°F).
The effect is reduced if zero point adjustment is performed at process temperature.
Density
When there is a difference between the density calibration temperature and the process
temperature, the typical measured error of the sensor is ±0.0001 g/cm

Field density calibration is possible.

Influence of medium
pressure
The table below shows the effect on accuracy of mass flow due to a difference between calibration
pressure and process pressure.
o.r. = of reading
It is possible to compensate for the effect by:
• Reading in the current pressure measured value via the current input.
• Specifying a fixed value for the pressure in the device parameters.
