4.4. Differential level mode (Pr.1 = 3)

In the differential mode, the transceiver drives two transducers, to measure the difference in levels by subtracting the

downstream level from the upstream level.

Please refer to connection diagram Fig. 6 for transducer wiring.

The upstream transducer should be chosen to give a positive differential value.

The application :

l

Start rake when differential reaches 0.15 m

l

Stop rake when differential falls to 0.05 m

l

Maximum differential 0.3 m

l

Alarm if level on upstream side exceeds 0.6 m

l

Loss-of-Echo indication to telemetry system

l

4-20 mA signal proportional to differential
