Type of medium
Here you can see which type of medium your instrument is suitable
for. If this function is inactive, the medium type your instrument is suit-
able for was already preset.
Information:
In special cases you can change the type of medium. This setting can
be changed under "Extended adjustment".
Application
In this field you can select the application you want to use your instru-
ment for. You have the following selection options:
•
Level in the metallic vessel
•
Level in the non-metallic vessel
•
Demonstration mode
Level measurement: If you select "Level", you can select the proper-
ties of the medium in another field.
Demonstration mode: This mode is only suitable for test and demon-
stration purposes. In this mode, the sensor ignores all parameters
and reacts immediately to all measured value changes within the
measuring range.
Application - Level measurement
The level measurement refers to the product surface which is the limit
to the gas phase.
•
With bulk solids:
– Dusts, wood chips - dielectric constant < 1.5
– Granules, dusts, powders - dielectric constant 1.5 … 3
– Cereals, flour - dielectric constant > 3
Adjustment for the level measurement
If you have selected level measurement in the previous menu, then
you can enter the values for the min. and max. adjustment. The value
to be entered refers to the distance from the sealing surface of the
process fitting (sensor reference plane) to the surface of the product.
A linearization is required if the measured value should be outputted
volume-proportional and not level-proportional. You can find further
linearization types in the extended adjustment.
If you have a non-linear vessel, you can select here the respective
linearization curve.

Horizontal cylindrical tank
In addition you have to enter the following vessel dimensions with
non-linear conditions:
•
Height of the socket h
•
Vessel height D
