WIKA Operating Instructions Level Transmitter 

– BLM-SF-FM 

4.2.2.15 Setting of the tank shape and characteristic curve 

The transmitter allows selection of a tank shape according to VDI/VDE 
3519 page 1 (DIN 28 011/28 013). Hereby, the volume is calculated from 
the product level (not interface) and displayed. 

Access: 

Setup -> Tank 

Available values are:
