The flow totalizer accumulates the total quantity of media that has passed the flow element over a specific time.

Short two connector terminals together on the display board to reset the flow totalizer display, see Figure 3-1 for
details. In applications where the operator is required to reset zero, FCI recommends that these terminals be brought
out to a convenient reset switch.

Non-Zero Based Calibration

This is a factory preset item.

In a non-zero based calibration, the low-limit output signal (4 mA) is equal to the minimum calibrated flow. The
minimum calibrated flow is a value greater than zero. The flowmeter's output signal will indicate the low-limit flow
signal (4 mA) from zero flow up to the low-flow limit parameter. Use a non-zero based calibration when the
minimum flow rate does not approach zero and the turndown ratios are small.

At no-flow, the minimum customer specified flow rate will appear on the display.
