Model PD6000 Analog Input Process Meter Instruction Manual
Square Root Linearization (
Square
)
The square root function can be used to linearize the signal from a diffe-
rential pressure transmitter and display flow rate in engineering units.
Programmable Exponent Linearization (
Prog E
)
The programmable exponent can be used to linearize the signal from
level transmitters in open-channel flow applications using weirs and
flumes.
Multi-Point Linearization (
Linear
)
Meters are set up at the factory for linear function with 2-point lineariza-
tion. Up to 32 linearization points can be selected under the linear func-
tion. The multi-point linearization can be used to linearize the display for
non-linear signals such as those from level transmitters used to meas-
ure volume in odd-shaped tanks or to convert level to flow using weirs
and flumes with complex exponent.

Round Horizontal Tank Linearization (
rHt
)
This function automatically calculates the volume in a round horizontal
tank with flat ends.
Set the display for the desired decimal point and engineering units be-
fore entering the round horizontal tank function. Enter the diameter and
the length in inches and the results are given in US gallons.
The meter can be scaled to display the volume in any engineering unit.
