How to modify parameters of Emerson micro motion mass flow meters?
Thread Content
Can the parameters of the Emerson mass flow meter Micro Motion 1700 be modified to make the actual mass flow rate it outputs higher or lower? Solve it, thank you!
It can be modified, but not in this way; this is cheating
The parameters can be modified, but those that have been calibrated should not be changed. It is important to pay attention to the correct installation method as well as the conditions of the medium being measured, such as density, pressure and temperature, flow rate, and whether it is pure or not, in order to determine whether the flow rate is accurate
It’s best not to change the original parameters; instead, calculate the coefficients manually
If it is certain that there is a deviation in the flow rate, the flow coefficient can be modified; the default value at manufacture is 1.0. It should be adjusted according to the actual conditions, but this coefficient has a specific range – for example, it can be changed between 0.8 and 1.2; values outside this range cannot be adjusted. The manufacturer allows us to make corrections within certain limits; values that are too high or too low indicate serious inaccuracies in the flow rate, which is why restrictions are in place to prevent arbitrary changes.
