  • first and second detachably connected portions, wherein the first portion includes;

    a flow measuring transducer that produces a flow measurement signal that varies non-linearly with flow rate; and

    storage means containing data specific to the transducer that represents a relationship between the flow measurement signal generated by the transducer and the flow rate measured by the transducer, and the second portion includes;

    processing means for processing the flow measurement signal from the transducer and the transducer specific data to produce an output signal representative of flow but independent of transducer characteristics represented in the transducer specific data, such that the output signal varies substantially linearly with flow rate.
