Alicat M Series Mass Flow Meter - Manual (Page 27)

Data Format:
The data stream on the screen represents the flow parameters of the main mode
in the units shown on the display.
For mass flow meters, there are five columns of data representing pressure,
temperature, volumetric flow, mass flow and the selected gas. The first column is
absolute pressure (normally in psia), the second column is temperature (normally
in °C), the third column is volumetric flow rate (in the units specified at time of
order and shown on the display), and the fourth column is mass flow (also in the
units specified at time of order and shown on the display). For instance, if the
meter was ordered in units of scfm, the display on the meter would read 2.004
scfm and the last two columns of the output below would represent volumetric
flow and mass flow in cfm and scfm respectively.

Note: On units with the totalizer function the fifth column will be the totalizer
value, with gas select moving to a sixth column.
