Section Six
TANK LEVEL CONFIRMATION
This section of LVCN414-SW is where you confirm the values set in the previous step.
The values were
entered under the Dimensional entry window. To edit these settings, you must go back to the Dimensional
entry window via the Volumetric Mode button.
Height Units:
Units selected for configuration. When used as a device to measure the distance (height
of liquid), the options are inches, cm, feet or m. When used as a device to measure the volume of
liquid, the options are gallons or liters.
Sensor Height:
Distance from the bottom of the tank to the bottom of the top of the threads.
Fill-Height:
Distance from the bottom of the tank to the operational full level of liquid (20mA). This
setting defines the location of full current output and is the top of the sensor’s measurement range.
Capacity:
The total volume of the tank. Only shown when gallons or liters are selected.
Note: By extending the empty (4mA) to the bottom of the tank, the 4-20 mA output will track the volume of the tank.
This allows any local display to read the actual volume of liquid without the need for any unique configuration. This
feature is very useful with any non-linear tanks such as horizontal, spherical or tanks with cone bottoms.
