Additional information
Meaning of the options
•
Oil/Water condensate
(only
Medium type
=
Liquid
)
Makes sure that in the case of two-phase media only the total level is detected (example:
oil/condensate application).
•
Probe near tank bottom
(only for
Medium type
=
Liquid
)
Improves the empty detection, especially if the probe is mounted close to the tank
bottom.
•
Build up
Enables a safe empty-detection even if the end-of-probe signal has shifted due to build-
up.
•
Foam (>5cm/0,16ft)
(only for
Medium type
=
Liquid
)
Optimizes the signal evaluation in applications with foam formation.
