The creeping suppression works with a hysteresis of - 25%.
Example : Creeping suppression = 0.6 l/min
If the flow rate is lower than 0.45 l/min the pulse output/analog output becomes inactive. If the flow
rate exceeds 0.6 l/min a pulse is output again and added to the totalizer. Similarly, a value is
transmitted to the analog output again.
The analog output is available as current output 4-20mA or 0-20mA. This is selected with the
purchase order. As a standard it comes with current output 4-20mA. It can also be switched off by
using the device menu or Programmtool.
Diagnostic
Analog output QA
The sub menu "Diagnostic" shows the software/hardware version and other helpful values for
analysis. Actual values and the instrument´s present status are important to analyze the
measurement or failure by the manufacturer service
