6.2 HORIZONTAL CYLINDRICAL TANK VALUE CONVERSIONS
For the calculation and input of the measured values for a horizontal cylindrical tank,
both the level % and Volume % relationships have to be calculated and then entered
within the manual input of distances and associated volumes procedure.
To calculate the values a table below has been provided to assist with the calculations.
After calculating the values perform a volume Teach-In -
D
.
Steps for value calculation
●
Identify the maximum and minimum level and volume for the application.
●
Enter the maximum (100%) and minimum (0%) volume and level within the table.
●
Calculate the level values at the respective level percentages for the application
(90% - 0%).
●
Calculate the volume values for the respective volume percentages by multiplying
the maximum volume of the application by the volume % within the table and
dividing by 100.
