Time Constant 

The time constant is an averaging period. It is 
used to dampen the display. If you are 
experiencing fluctuating flows, a longer time 
constant will slow down those fluctuations. 
The display will update every second, but the 
displayed reading will be the average over the 
last time constant period. For example, if the 
time constant is 10 seconds, the display will 
update every second, but the displayed 
reading will be the average from the last 10 
seconds. This is also referred to as a “moving 
average”. 

Log Interval 

The logging interval is a frequency period that 
the instrument will log readings. For example, 
if the logging interval is set to 30 minutes, 
each sample will be the average of the last 30 
minutes.
