Yokogawa mass flow meter shows negative reading...what r the main causes for this problem?...

Impossible to say, because the technology is not stated, nor are the conditions stated.

Yokogawa is a brand name, not a technology, and the reason for a negative flow indication depends on the technology.

Technologies for mass flow (however inferred) are
- multivariable flow meters based on pressure and temperature compensated differential pressure
- Coriolis flow meters
- Vortex flow meters with temperature and pressure compensation
- Thermal dispersion flow meters
which might or might not be Yokogawa products.

The reasons for a false negative flow indication could be quite different for any of the technologies

Conditions like the expected flow rate vs the observed flow rate, medium, medium temperature and pressure, service history, installation details (vertical or horizontal), flow path, type of pump, process function or contiguous piping and its orientation, and configuration elements like low flow cutoff could contribute to an indicated negative flow rate, or operational method of zeroing.

Because it could be that you actually have reverse flow from a thermal syphon or a pressure syphon.

A pressure transmitter with a range of 0-100 bar.The accuracy of the instrument is 1% of upper range value? The pressure indicating transmitter is showing the system pressure is 50 bar. b. When you include the error, what is the minimum possible pressure in our fuel gas system? i. 49.5 bar ii. 49 bar iii. 1 bar iv. 0.5 bar We want to change the filter cartridge. We must depressure the fuel gas system. c. After we depressure the system in preparation for maintenance, the transmitter displays a pressure of +0.1 bar. At this time, what is the possible range of pressures in our fuel system? i. +0.099 to +0.101 bar ii. 0 to +0.2 bar iii. -0.1 to +0.3 bar iv. -0.9 to +1.1 bar
