Example 3 (SI units)
Therefore, an input frequency of 700.00 Hz represents a flow rate of 9259.2 NCMH in this
application.
For a given input frequency, you may also determine the current output. Use the prior example
with an input frequency of 375 Hz.
URV= 10000 NCMH LRV= 0 NCMH F
in
(Hz) = 375.00
= 11.94 mA
Therefore, an input frequency of 375.00 Hz represents a current output
of 11.94 mA.
