4.5 Measured value damping
The damping time [dAP�F] und [dAP�P] allows to set after how many seconds the
output signal has reached 63 % of the final value if the flow value / the pressure
value changes suddenly� The set damping time stabilises the switching outputs,
the display and the process value transfer via the IO-Link interface�
The damping time is added to the response time of the sensor (→ Technical
are defined under consideration of the damping
time�
4.6 Low flow cut-off
With the function low flow cut-off [LFC] it is possible to suppress small volumet-
ric flow quantities� Flows below the LFC value are evaluated by the sensor as
standstill (Q = 0)�
4.7 Simulation
With this function, the process values flow, temperature, pressure and meter read-
ing of the totaliser are simulated and their signal chain is reviewed�
When the parameters cr�UL, UL, OL und cr�OL are set, the process values that
lead to an error message or warning can be simulated
When the simulation is started, the values of the totaliser are frozen and the
simulated totaliser is set to 0� The simulated flow value then has an effect on the
simulated totaliser� When the simulation is ended, the initial totaliser values are
restored�
The simulation does not have any effect on the currently existing process
values� The outputs operate as previously set�
During the simulation the original totaliser value remains saved without any
changes even if there is a real flow�
During the simulation operation, no error message of the currently real
application is available� They are suppressed by the simulation�
