A.2.3 Measuring range
See
for each probe’s measuring
range and minimum dielectric constant. Due to the
measuring range depending on the application and factors
described below, the values are a guideline for clean liquids.
For more information, ask your local Emerson Process
Management representative.
Note
for the
maximum recommended measuring range for different
Remote Housing lengths, installation types, Dielectric
Constants, and probe types.
Different parameters (factors) affect the echo and therefore
the maximum measuring range differs depending on
application according to:
Disturbing objects close to the probe.
Media with higher dielectric constant (e
r
) gives better
reflection and allows a longer measuring range.
Surface foam and particles in the tank atmosphere may
affect measuring performance.
Heavy product build-up or contamination on the probe
should be avoided since it can reduce measuring range
and might cause erroneous level readings.
