SITRANS F O
Measuring principle

Through constriction of the line diameter in


the orifice, the flow rate creates a
differential pressure that is converted with
the help of a differential pressure
transmitter into a current signal proportional
to the flow value rate.

Where:
q: flow (qm, qv) mass flow or volume flow
p: Differential pressure

Relationship between flow q and differential pressure p

Characteristic curves
The orifice plate has a square-root relationship between differential
pressure and flow.
A transmitter with square-root characteristic is required for creating a
flow linear output signal (420mA).

Example: measuring cell p = 600mbar


Q [%] 0 1 3 5 8 10 15 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

p [%] 0 0,001 0.09 0,25 0,64 1 2,25 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 81 100

Basics
Preconditions for the commissioning Calculation of Orifice

For every flow measurement of this kind an orifice


Calculation certificate
calculation must be available.

This calculation sheet includes parameters such as


Medium
Working pressure
Working temperature
Density
Dimensions of the Pipe

For commissioning the p value


orifice only two values
are required Flow Rate (qv = Volume Flow)

SIMATIC PDM: Configuration of the Flow Application
without using the Wizard

Note
When using the
"Flow rate" block,
other square root
extracting
characteristic
curves must be
deactivated. The
"characteristic
curve" parameter
must be "linear",
as the root
extraction is
already
implemented in
"flow rate"
