Calibration: level measurement
The calibration for operating mode 0 requires the determination of two parameters, in
any order, for each measurement channel:
•
an »empty« level:
at V0H1 for channel 1 and V4H1 for channel 2,
•
a »full« level:
at V0H2 for channel 1 and V4H2 for channel 2.
For modes 1 and 2, the parameters for the selected channel only are entered.
After calibration
If the level is entered in %, after the calibration:
•
% level is displayed at V0H0/channel 1 and V4H0/channel 2
•
The 0/4
…
20 mA signal range corresponds to 0
…
100%
•
The limit relays trip at 90% (maximum fail-safe)
•
The parameters »offset« and »sensitivity« are calculated and stored at
V3H1/V3H2 for channel 1 and V7H1/V7H2 for channel 2.
If the level is entered in m, ft, etc. the analogue outputs and relay switching points must
be set in the same units

Note!
•
The calibration can be made in the reverse order.
•
For bulk solids, the probe measures the depth of emersion in the product only. Any
filling mound or emptying depression is accounted for by the parameters entered.
