Each product has different reflective properties. In addition, there are
various interfering factors which have to be taken into account:
agitated product surfaces and foam generation (with liquids); dust
generation, material cones and echoes from the vessel wall (with
solids). To adapt the sensor to these different conditions, you should
first select "Liquid" or "Solid".

According to the conductivity and the dielectric value of liquids, the
reflection properties can differ considerably. Therefore additional
options such as "Solvent", "Chem. mixture" and "Water based" are
offered below the menu item Liquid.
