Effect of Flow Damping on volume measurement
Flow Damping affects volume measurement for liquid volume data. Flow Damping also affects
volume measurement for gas standard volume data. The transmitter calculates volume
data from the damped mass flow data.
Interaction between Flow Damping and Added Damping
In some circumstances, both Flow Damping and Added Damping are applied to the reported
mass flow value.
Flow Damping controls the rate of change in flow process variables. Added Damping controls
the rate of change reported via the mA output. If mA Output Process Variable is set to Mass
Flow Rate, and both Flow Damping and Added Damping are set to non-zero values, flow
damping is applied first, and the added damping calculation is applied to the result of the
first calculation.

Overview
Mass Flow Cutoff specifies the lowest mass flow rate that will be reported as measured. All
mass flow rates below this cutoff will be reported as 0.
Procedure
Set Mass Flow Cutoff to the value you want to use.
The default value for Mass Flow Cutoff is 0.0 g/sec or a sensor-specific value set at the
factory. The recommended setting is 0.05% of the sensor's rated maximum flow rate or a
value below the highest expected flow rate. Do not set Mass Flow Cutoff to 0.0 g/sec.
