Installation
Type
The installation on the tank for the
device.
Socket, Stillwell, Nozzle
Nozzle
C.1.2
Tank Height
The distance from the tank connecting
flange face / thread stop down to the
tank bottom.
min-max:
0.165…60 m / 0.54…196.86 ft
3 m / 9.84 ft
C.1.4
Nozzle /
Stillwell Height
The height from the tank connecting
flange face / thread stop to the bottom
of the nozzle or...the height from the
tank connecting flange face / thread
stop to the bottom of the stillwell.
min-max:
0…60 m / 0…196.86 ft
100 mm /
3.94 in
C.1.5
Nozzle /
Stillwell
Diameter
The inner diameter of the nozzle or
stillwell.
min-max:
20…1000 mm / 0.79…39.37 in
100 mm /
3.94 in
C.1.6
Probe Length
Probe length is the distance from the
flange face / thread stop of the device
down to the bottom end of the probe
(including counterweight for cable
versions). If probe length has been
modified, enter the new value here. For
more data, refer to
How to decrease
the length of probes
on page 98.
min-max: blocking
distance…max. probe length
for that type (single/double
rod: 4 m / 13 ft, coaxial: 6 m /
20 ft, single cable: 35 m /
115 ft, double cable: 8 m / 26 ft)
Depends on the
probe type.
C.1.9
Blocking
Distance
The non-measuring range at the top of
the probe. It depends on the probe type
and the installation.
min-max:
0…(probe length) m /
0…(probe length) ft
Depends on the
probe type. For
more data,
refer to
Measurement
limits
on page
141.
Detection Delay This forces the device not to analyse
reflections in a defined zone
immediately below the flange. Increase
blocking distance to increase the
maximum value.
min-max:
0…(blocking distance) m /
0…(blocking distance) ft
Depends on the
"blocking
distance". See
C.1.9 (Blocking
Distance)
C.1.10
Reference
Offset
Offset relating to a reference location
(distance). This value is positive when
the reference location is above the
device flange face and negative if
below. For more data, refer to
Distance
measurement
on page 87.
min-max:
-tank height…50 m /
-tank height...164.05 ft
0 m / 0 ft
C.1.11
Tank Bottom
Offset
Offset relating to a reference location
(level). The device reference point for
this parameter is the bottom of the
tank (set in menu item C.1.2.0). This
value is positive when the reference
location is below the tank bottom and
negative if above. For more data, refer
to
Level measurement
on page 88.
min-max:
-tank height...3000 m /
-tank height...9843 ft
0 m / 0 ft
C.1.12
Time Constant
Increasing the time constant will
smoothen the integrated readings,
decreasing will roughen the readings.
min-max: 0 to 100 seconds
20 seconds for
solids
5 seconds for
liquids
