  • Page 32 When pulse output is used, the most important thing is to check the above Duty_cycle, Flow_rate and Pulse_scale. The specification check of the system in which PAD-F pulse output will be input is also important. For examples, if the system to which PAD-F will be applied is used to measure the flow rate 0~20,000l/h and the Pulse_Scale is set to 0.1, Pulse Duty Cycle will be shown as...
  • Page 33 On the above result, the value exceeds the maximum Duty cycle (49Pulse/sec) PAD-F can output. In this case, Pulse_Scale must be set to 1 or more. If the system requires Pulse_Scale to be set to 0.1 or less, you can not use PAD-F. On the contrary, in case of the system that Duty_cycle is primarily decided, you need to calculate the Flow_rate and check it matches the value of system design.

  • Page 42: General Considerations

    5.5 General Considerations The PAD transmitter uses a capacitance or piezoresistive pick up. As changes in pressure are accurately detected, any zero shift or installation offsets will be transmitted as a pressure change on the 4~20mA analogue current output. Hence it is recommended that the transmitter be mounted as close to the process as possible and use short impulse piping, when possible, to achieve best accuracy.
