Notes:
1.
Beam should not detect bin bottom.
If this occurs, use range extension parameters (on transceivers where available) to omit false
echoes.
2.
Sound beam must be perpendicular to liquid surface.
When mounting the standpipe and flange, you must ensure that the transducer face will
be parallel with the liquid's surface. Refer to Standpipes (Page 42).
3.
Echo has missed improperly leveled transducer
.
As in the second bullet, ensure that the standpipe and flange are mounted to set the
transducer face level with the measured liquid.
4.
Calibrate under normal conditions.
When performing an empty or full calibration, the tank must contain its normal vapour and
be at its normal temperature.
5.
This seal is not supplied by Siemens.
The XPS-15F and XRS-5C Series transducer comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling
suitable for use in hazardous locations.
