Application and selection notes
- Converter accuracy is not the accuracy of the complete flow meter.
- Check flow direction, installation configuration, pressure loss and fluid density; scale conditions vary with the configuration.
- Provide the power supply and receiving-device impedance so we can check the two-wire loop.
