3 Term and Definition
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 18659-2002 and those below apply.
3.1
constant of primary device
an inherent factor of sensor, equivalent to the electromotive force of signal of a certain field current, or the field current producing a certain electromotive force, at 1m/s flow rate. It may serve as the ratio of electromotive force of signal to reference signal of magnetic field.
