3. Applications
3.1 Liquid Volume
Measurements:
A flowmeter measures the actual volume in a liquid line.
Calculations:
• For Flowmeters with Pulse Outputs, Volume flow is calculated using the flowmeter frequency output
and the user entered K-Factor or Linearization Table.
Output Results:
• Display Results
Flow Rate, Resettable Total, Non-Resettable Total
• Pulse Output

• Analog Output
Rate or Total
• Relay Outputs
Rate or Total Alarms
Applications:
The Flow Computer can monitor actual volume flow and total of any liquid. Flow alarms are provided
via relays and datalogging is available via serial outputs.
