Derived Variables And Calculated Process Variables - Emerson Micro Motion 2700 Configuration And Use Manual

Tip
If the standard matrices are not appropriate for your application, you can build a custom matrix or
purchase a custom matrix from Micro Motion.
Table 4-14: Standard concentration matrices and associated measurement units
Matrix name Description
Deg Balling Matrix represents percent extract, by
mass, in solution, based on °Balling.
For example, if a wort is 10 °Balling
and the extract in solution is 100% su-
crose, the extract is 10% of the total
mass.
Deg Brix
Matrix represents a hydrometer scale
for sucrose solutions that indicates the
percent by mass of sucrose in solution
at a given temperature. For example,
40 kg of sucrose mixed with 60 kg of
water results in a 40 °Brix solution.
Deg Plato Matrix represents percent extract, by
mass, in solution, based on °Plato. For
example, if a wort is 10 °Plato and the
extract in solution is 100% sucrose, the
extract is 10% of the total mass.
HFCS 42
Matrix represents a hydrometer scale
for HFCS 42 (high-fructose corn syrup)
solutions that indicates the percent by
mass of HFCS in solution.
HFCS 55
Matrix represents a hydrometer scale
for HFCS 55 (high-fructose corn syrup)
solutions that indicates the percent by
mass of HFCS in solution.
HFCS 90 Matrix represents a hydrometer scale
for HFCS 90 (high-fructose corn syrup)
solutions that indicates the percent by
mass of HFCS in solution.

Derived variables and calculated process variables

For each derived variable, the concentration measurement application calculates a
different set of process variables.
