14.4 Set up pressure compensation

Pressure compensation adjusts process measurement to compensate for the pressure effect on the sensor.
The pressure effect is the change in the sensor's sensitivity to flow and density caused by the difference
between the calibration pressure and the process pressure.
Tip
Not all sensors or applications require pressure compensation. The pressure effect for a specific sensor model
can be found in the product data sheet located at www.emerson.com. If you are uncertain about
implementing pressure compensation, contact customer service.
Prerequisites
You will need the flow factor, density factor, and calibration pressure values for your sensor.
• For the flow factor and density factor, see the product data sheet for your sensor.
• For the calibration pressure, see the calibration sheet for your sensor. If the data is unavailable, use 20 psi
(1.38 bar).
You must be able to supply pressure data to the transmitter.

Definition
The zero value obtained by performing a zero calibration outside the factory.
The zero value stored in the transmitter at the time a field zero calibration is begun. May
be the factory zero or a previous field zero.
The zero value stored in the transmitter, typically obtained from a zero calibration
procedure. It may also be configured manually. Also called "mechanical zero" or "stored
zero".
The real-time bidirectional mass flow rate with no flow damping or mass flow cutoff
applied. An adaptive damping value is applied only when the mass flow rate changes
dramatically over a very short interval. Unit = configured mass flow measurement unit.
A laboratory-derived value used to calculate the expected accuracy for a sensor. Under
laboratory conditions at zero flow, the average flow rate is expected to fall within the
range defined by the Zero Stability value (0 ± Zero Stability). Each sensor size and model
has a unique Zero Stability value. Statistically, 95% of all data points should fall within the
range defined by the Zero Stability value.
The procedure used to determine the zero value.
The time period over which the Zero Calibration procedure is performed. Unit = seconds.
A 3-minute running average of the Live Zero value, calculated by the transmitter. Unit =
configured mass flow measurement unit.
A procedure used to evaluate the stored zero and determine whether or not a field zero
can improve measurement accuracy.
