Description
Warning:
Critical Parameter!
“Minimum measuring distance”
As probe technical data table
The dead zone is the minimum measuring distance from the process connection (reference
point) to the surface of the medium. So as not to impair measurement accuracy, the minimum
values given in Section 3 should be adhered to.
The current output can’t go inside the dead zone. Signals generated within the dead zone
does not be processed.
The unit of measurement at the output is to be set by the Length one – P01.
Set value:
“DEVICE SETTINGS” window / “Measurement configuration” tab – „Dead zone”
parameter.
Damping time (P18)
Time constant
1 – 100 s.
This function filters rapid signal fluctuations (eg. caused by the turbulence of the liquid).
It only affects the current output.
Set value:
“DEVICE SETTINGS” window / “Measurement configuration” tab – „Damping
time” parameter.
5 s
Probe length (P07)
Minimum: 100 mm (3.94 inch)
Maximum: 24 000 mm (945 inch)
Set probe 100 mm (3.94 inch).
This value should be modified when the probe replaced or shortened (cable probes).
The unit of measurement at the output is to be set by the Length one – P01. In case of a
special installation, the length of the Probe may be selected longer than the height of the
tank, but less than 24 m (78.74 ft).
Set value:
“DEVICE SETTINGS” window / “Measurement configuration” tab –
„Probe length” parameter.
Ordered length
+ 100 mm (3.94 inch)
Detection delay (P08)
Minimum value: 0mm (0 inch)
Maximum value: Dead Zone
As per order
This function can be used to define an area directly below the flange in which interference
reflections (e.g., from the tank nozzle) are masked.
This value has to be smaller or equal to the dead zone (Dead zone – P06).
Set value:
“DEVICE SETTINGS” window / “Measurement configuration” tab –„Detection
delay” parameter.
