Programming Features

Flow Totalizer

The Flow Totalizer consists of three numeric counters that keep track of the
total flow being measured. Two software totalizers are standard with a third
external mechanical totalizer as an option. The two software totalizers consist
of a resettable totalizer and a non-resettable totalizer. Both totalizers are set
to zero upon program start.

Scaling multipliers are provided to allow tailoring of the totalizer response to
meet the requirements of the application. Some applications with high flow
rates will require a high scaling factor, while low flow rates will require a low
scaling factor.

The scaling factor is displayed whenever a total flow number is displayed.
As indicated in the Status Screen below, the total flow is displayed as
“TOTAL (x1000): 465 gal.” Multiplying the displayed total flow by the scaling
factor (1000) gives an actual total flow of 465,000 gallons.

key. All three

totalizers are scaled with one of seven scaling factors: X1, X10, X100,
X1000, X10,000, X100,000 or X1,000,000. The selected scaling factor
always applies to all totalizers. Press
