1.1 Software history
"Firmware revision" and "Hardware revision" agree with NAMUR NE 53. These revisions each
have a series of numbers used to record the revision status of embedded software (firmware)
and hardware in electronic equipment assemblies. They give data on the type of changes made
and the effect that changes have on compatibility.
Data about software revisions is shown in the DTM for PACTware
™
. For more data, refer to
Information on page 52. If it is not possible to refer to data in the software, record the serial
number of the device (given on the device nameplate) and speak to the supplier.
1.2 Intended use
This radar level transmitter measures distance and level of liquids or the top of a float. It does
not touch the measured product.
This radar level transmitter can only be used if it is correctly installed and aligned on a bypass
chamber. The bypass chamber must be metallic and electrically conductive.
