Configure Mass Flow Measurement Unit - Emerson Micro Motion 5700 Configuration And Use Manual

Configure process measurement
March 2019
Option Description
Against Arrow The majority of flow through the sensor is opposite to the Flow arrow on the sensor. Actual
forward flow is processed as reverse flow.
Tip
Micro Motion sensors are bidirectional. Measurement accuracy is not affected by actual flow direction or the
setting of Sensor Flow Direction Arrow. Sensor Flow Direction Arrow controls only whether actual flow is
processed as forward flow or reverse flow.

4.2 Configure mass flow measurement
The mass flow measurement parameters control how mass flow is measured and reported. The mass total
and mass inventory are derived from the mass flow data.

Field Communicator
Mass Flow Measurement Unit specifies the unit of measure that will be used for the mass flow rate. The
default unit used for mass total and mass inventory is derived from this unit.
Procedure
Set Mass Flow Measurement Unit to the unit you want to use.
• Default: g/sec (grams per second)
Tip
If the measurement unit you want to use is not available, you can define a special measurement unit.
Options for Mass Flow Measurement Unit
The transmitter provides a standard set of measurement units for Mass Flow Measurement Unit, plus one
user-defined special measurement unit. Different communications tools may use different labels for the
units.
