Ultrasonic Level Meter

Operation Manual

Medium  speed:  the  parameters  are  between  those  for  slow  speed  and  fast
speed;

Fast speed: the response rate is fast and measuring accuracy is low, very easy
to be disturbed. The factory default is medium speed.

3.Safe Level(Safe material level)

: there are four optional items, i.e. remaining,

minimum value, maximum value and setting value.

Remaining: the display value is the final measured value before wave loss, and
the current is the corresponding value;

Minimum: the display value is 4mA after wave loss, and the current 4mA;

Maximum: the display value is 20mA after wave loss, and the current 20mA;

Setting value: the display value is the final measured value after wave loss, and
the current output is the setting value of setting current. The factory default is
the remaining value.

4.

Current Set(Set current):

set the output current after wave loss, which shall

be  more  than  3.6mA  and  less  than  22mA,  and  become  invalid  in  case  of
remaining/minimum/maximum  values  on  reselection.  The  factory  default  is
3.6mA.

"4 Transducer Set(Set probe)" (do not modify this parameter)

Select probe and set relevant parameters.

1 Transducer Type(Probe selection):

1~9 options. Select the probe according

to label on it. Factory default is 5.
