Description of the applications
This menu item enables you to optimally adapt the sensor to the
application, the place of use and the measuring conditions. The
adjustment possibilities depend on the selection made under "
Medium", " Liquid" or " Bulk solid".
The vessels as well as the measuring and process conditions are
described in the following as an overview.
With " Liquid", the applications are based on the following features,
to which the measuring characteristic of the sensor is adjusted in
particular:
Storage tank
•
Vessel:
–
Large volume
–
Upright cylindrical, horizontal round
•
Process/measurement conditions:
–
Slow filling and emptying
–
Smooth medium surface
–
Multiple reflections from dished vessel ceiling
–
Condensation
Stirrer vessel
•
Vessel:
–
Large agitator blades of metal
–
Installations like flow breakers, heating spirals
–
Nozzle
•
Process/measurement conditions:
–
Frequent, fast to slow filling and emptying
–
Strongly agitated surface, foam and strong vortex generation
–
Multiple reflections through dished vessel ceiling
–
Condensation, buildup on the sensor
•
Further recommendations
–
False signal suppression when the agitator is running via the
operating tool
Dosing vessel
•
Vessel:
–
Small vessels
