Empty-tank spectrum
To enable the DR22X0 instrument to identify and blank out interference signals, e.g. caused
by fixed and moving tank internals, the tank profile (empty-tank spectrum) needs to be
recorded once only prior to (initial) start-up. For recording, the tank should be completely
empty and all moving parts (e.g. agitators) switched on. If major interference through
internals is not expected, recording of the empty-tank spectrum is not necessary, since the
factory has already carried out and stored a partial empty spectrum of the flange system.
Empty-tank spectrum recording via display
After selecting menu item
Fct. 3.5.2,
press key
→
. The display then shows whether the
empty spectrum is currently ON or OFF. Then press the
↵
key if no change is to be made,
or
use the
↑
key to choose between the following options:
•
ON: the empty-tank spectrum is (again) switched on and taken into account for
measurements.
•
OFF: the empty-tank spectrum is not taken into account for measurements, but
remains stored in the DR22X0 and can be switched on again at a later date.
•
RECORD: the existing empty-tank spectrum is to be deleted and a new one
recorded.
