• PULSATING FLOW<br />

If flow is characterized by severe fluctuations as is the case, for example, with<br />

reciprocating pumps, flow components outside the measuring range are buffered,<br />

balanced and output after a maximum delay <strong>of</strong> 60 seconds. If the buffered data cannot<br />

be processed within approx. 60 seconds, a fault/notice message appears.<br />

Under certain plant conditions, flow values can aggregate in the buffer, for example in<br />

the case <strong>of</strong> prolonged and unwanted fluid backflow. However, this buffer is reset in all<br />

relevant programming adjustments which affect the current output.<br />

" Caution!<br />

If the option BATCH UPWARDS or BATCH DOWNWARDS is selected in the function<br />

ASSIGN CURRENT OUTPUT (4000), the option is automatically specified and cannot be<br />

edited.<br />

•STANDARD<br />

The current output signal is proportional to the measured variable. The flow<br />

components outside the scaled measuring range are not taken into account for signal<br />

output.<br />

mA<br />

• SYMMETRY<br />

The current output signal is independent <strong>of</strong> the direction <strong>of</strong> flow.<br />
