instrument response in two cases: a flow rate variation from 0 to 10% completely absorbed by the time constant effect and a variation form 10% to 100% exceeding the acceleration threshold and then immediately sent to the output. In actual fact there is always a minimum time between the measure acquisition and the outputs update.
