Through this additional selection, the sensor is adapted perfectly to

the product and measurement reliability, particularly in products with

poor reflective properties, is considerably increased.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your

settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.

Apart from the medium, the vessel shape can also influence the

measurement. To adapt the sensor to these measuring conditions,

this menu item offers different options depending on whether liquid

or bulk solid is selected. With "Liquids" these are "Storage tank",

"Stilling tube", "Open vessel" or "Stirred vessel", with "Solid", "Silo" or

"Bunker".

Storage tank

Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your

settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.

To suppress fluctuations in the measured value display, e. g. caused

by an agitated product surface, a damping can be set. This time can

be between 0 and 999 seconds. Keep in mind that the reaction time of

the entire measurement will then be longer and the sensor will react

to measured value changes with a delay. In general, a period of a few

seconds is sufficient to smooth the measured value display.

Damping

Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your

settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.

A linearisation is necessary for all vessels in which the vessel volume

does not increase linearly with the level - e.g. in a horizontal cylindri-

cal or spherical tank - and the indication or output of the volume is

required. Corresponding linearisation curves are preprogrammed for

these vessels. They represent the correlation between the level per-

centage and vessel volume. By activating the appropriate curve, the

volume percentage of the vessel is displayed correctly. If the volume

should not be displayed in percent but e.g. in l or kg, a scaling can be

also set in the menu item "Display".
