For a given input frequency, you may also determine the current output. Use the Example 2 on
page 126 with an input frequency of 300 Hz:
URV= 40000 lb/hr LRV= 0 lb/hr F
in
(Hz) = 300.00
= 9.83 mA
Therefore, an input frequency of 300.00 Hz represents a current
output of 9.83 mA.
Example 3 (English units)
Therefore, an input frequency of 700.00 Hz represents a flow rate of 5569.4 SCFM in this
application.
For a given input frequency, you may also determine the current output. Use the above example
with an input frequency of 200 Hz.
URV= 5833 SCFM LRV= 0 SCFM F
in
(Hz) = 200.00
= 8.36 mA
Therefore, an input frequency of 200 Hz represents a current output of 8.36 mA.
