Technical data
Configuration screen, specifies the number of consecutive failure-free batches required for
updating the bin data (range: [1, 1000], default: 24). The NumVals data point (that
determines how quickly an average value changes) is also configurable via the Edit/Compare
Configuration screen (range: [1, 1000], default: 10).

3.5 Volumetric flow rate values
The Daniel Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter provides two volumetric flow rate values: raw and
flow-condition.
The flow-condition volumetric flow rate can include pressure and/or temperature-
expansion correction for meter body expansion.
Note
A positive volumetric flow rate indicates flow in the forward direction whereas a negative volumetric
flow rate indicates flow in the reverse direction.
Refer to the flow measurement tables in the Daniel 3810 Series Liquid Ultrasonic Product
Datasheet (P/N DAN-LIQ-USM-DS-0306) on the Daniel website:
