The ViscoSite Density input is an
ISOLATED
analog input.
The density transducer output
MUST
be isolated from earth
ground to avoid undesirable system behavior.
If the Density transducer output range is not configured
correctly on the density transducer, incorrect values for the
minimum and maximum densities are entered into the
ViscoSite software.
If Auto Density is enabled when no density transducer is
connected to the transmitter,
the calculated viscosity in
units of mPa
∙
s, cP, and cSt WILL BE INVALID
.
Manual Density
If no density transducer is present and/or a fixed density value
sufficiently describes the material properties across the process range,
a fixed value for the density of the material at process conditions may
be entered into the ViscoSite software to allow for the calculation of
viscosity in units of millipascal seconds (mPa
*s), centipoise (cP) or
centistokes (cSt).
5.8.3.1 Enabling and Configuring Manual Density
•
S
elect the “Manual Density Enabled” radio button
.
•
Input a density value representative of the material at
process conditions.
•
Press
ENTER/RETURN
on the keyboard.
•
Make additional parameter entries as necessary,
pressing ENTER/RETURN after each value entered.
•
Once all parameters have been selected in this
submenu as described above,
click on another toolbar
button to trigger the “Save Changes” Dialog.
•
To save the most recent changes, click “
Save
.”
This
sends the updated information to the transmitter.
•
To exit the menu without saving the most recent
changes
, click “
Continue
.”
•
To remain in the menu, click “
Cancel
.” The most recent
changes remain on the screen for further editing. They
are not sent to the transmitter.
