Reproducibility

Deviation with bulk solids

The values depend to a great extent on the application.

Binding specifications are thus not possible.

Variables influencing measurement accuracy
Specifications apply to the HART signal and the current output
Temperature drift - Digital output

±3 mm/10 K relating to the max. measuring range or

max. 10 mm

Additional deviation through strong, high

frequency electromagnetic fields acc. to

EN 61326

< ±50 mm

Specifications apply also to the current output
Temperature drift - Current output

±0.03 %/10 K relating to the 16 mA span max. ±0.3 %

Deviation on the current output by ana-

logue/digital conversion

< ±15 µA

Deviation on the current output due to

strong, high frequency electromagnetic

fields acc. to EN 61326

< ±150 µA

Influence of the superimposed gas and pressure to the accuracy
The propagation speed of the radar impulses in gas or vapour above the medium is reduced by

high pressure. This effect depends on the superimposed gas or vapour and is especially large at

low temperatures.
