If you need to return your flowmeter to Krohne,
please refer to last but one page of these Instructions !
Example
Full-scale range
Q
100%
= 200 m

/hr (Fct. 1.01)
Meter size
DN

Pulses at
Q

Primary head constant
GK

Constant
(V
in m3)
(t

(DN in mm)
Calculation of “ X ” and position of “ Y ”
X =
Q

200 x 7074
= 61.905
GK x DN

3.571 x 80 x 80
Y = 80, position of switch Y, see front panel GS 8A
(comes closest to X value and is smaller than X).
Calculation of setpoint readings I and f
I = I
0%
+
Y
(I

(20mA - 4mA) = 14.3 mA
X 61.905
Deviations are permissible between 14.1 and 14.6 mA (equivalent to ± 1.5 %).
f =

x pulses / hr = 129.2 pulses/hr
X 61.905
Deviations are permissible between 127.3 and 131.1 pulses/hr (equivalent to ± 1.5 %).
