2. GENERAL

Using the most advanced electronic tehcnologies, this digital instrument has been developed specifically 

to  meet  the  most  demanding  flow  measurement  applications  in  petroleum  products  receiving  facilities 

where accuracy is the prime requirement. 

In response to the liquid flowrate and temperature information arriving from the sensing terminal, such as 

a flowmeter, it totalizes the flow while implementing meter error and temperature corrections. 

An analog output and instant flowrate (corrected for meter error and temperature) output are additional 

provisions.

2.1 Features

() Incorporated capabilities to calibrate meter error for viscosity and flow velocity (viscosity correction), 

to correct by volumetric conversion factor (temperature correction), and to display the total flow 

readings readily permit the application engineer to build a petroleum products measurement system 

with this single instrument.

() Changing  the  meter  factor,  ranges  of  temperature,  or  other  parameters,  of  the  companion 

flowmeter is simple by keystrokes on the front-panel keypad, or by inserting an IC card into the slot.

() Built around a microprocessor, the instrument carries out calculations entirely in digital signal 

processing circuits to achieve a high degree of accuracy and reliability.

() Variables,  such  as  temperature  and  totals,  can  be  reviewed  on  command  with  the  front  panel 

keypad, whether or not calculation is in progress.

(5) Viscosity and density settings are continuously adjustable. Also, by switching the oil kind, the 

instrument is compatible with three different kinds of oils.

() Remote viscosity and density read/write through the communication link is acceptable.

() A  nonvolatile  memory  (E

PROM)  retains  all  parameters  and  variables.  Variables  are  resettable 

following a power cycle or reset if so configured.
