Example application 2
– step by step
A flow sensor (measuring range: 60 m/s; output signal:
4 … 20 mA) is
installed into a tube with DN 50. Using the unfiltered measurement value
of flow velocity w
N
, the volume flow shall be calculated and displayed as
primary value (in m³/h).
The analog output of the display shall
use 4 … 20 mA to signal a scaled
volume flow: 4 mA
≙
0 m³/h and 20 mA
≙
200 m³/h.
In addition, a switching signal, delayed by 30 seconds is required as soon
as 150 m³/h are exceeded, the hysteresis is 10 m
3
/h.
- Determination of the maximum volume flow based on the maximum
flow velocity and the pipe diameter: 60 m/s
≙
343 m³/h
