6 Set up with the display and adjustment module
VEGAPULS SR 68 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire
38294-EN-160707
The selection "
Standpipe
" opens a new window in which the inner
diameter of the applied standpipe is entered.
The following features form the basis of the applications:
Storage tank:
•
Setup: large-volumed, upright cylindrical, spherical
•
Medium speed: slow filling and emptying
•
Process/measurement conditions:
– Condensation
– Smooth product surface
– High requirements on measurement accuracy
•
Properties, sensor:
– Low sensitivity to sporadic false echoes
– Stable and reliable measured values through averaging
– High accuracy
– Short reaction time of the sensor not required
Storage tank with product circulation:
•
Setup: large-volumed, upright cylindrical, spherical
•
Medium speed: slow filling and emptying
•
Installations: small laterally mounted or large top mounted stirrer
•
Process/measurement conditions:
– Relatively smooth product surface
– High requirements on measurement accuracy
– Condensation
– Slight foam generation
–
Overfilling possible
•
Properties, sensor:
– Low sensitivity to sporadic false echoes
– Stable and reliable measured values through averaging
– High accuracy, because not set for max. speed
– False signal suppression recommended
Storage tank on ships (Cargo Tank):
•
Medium speed: slow filling and emptying
•
Vessel:
– Installations in the bottom section (bracers, heating spirals)
– High sockets 200 … 500 mm, also with large diameters
•
Process/measurement conditions:
– Condensation, buildup by movement
– Max. requirement on measurement accuracy from 95 %
•
Properties, sensor:
– Low sensitivity to sporadic false echoes
– Stable and reliable measured values through averaging
