Density measurement
You can measure the density in tanks with pressure overlay using two Deltapilot S probes and a signal
processing unit or a PLC. The signal processing unit or the PLC calculates the density from the known distance
Δ
h between the two probes and the two measured values p
1
and p
2
.

Level measurement with automatic density correction (with changing media in the tank)
Level measurement with automatic density correction is possible in conjunction with a limit switch such as
Liquiphant and a PLC. The limit switch always switches at the same level. In the switch point, the signal
processing unit determines the corrected density from the pressure of the Deltapilot S probe currently
measured and the known distance between Deltapilot S and the limit switch. The signal processing unit then
calculates the level from the new density and the measured pressure from the Deltapilot S probe.
