6.5.6 "In height" level selection
Calibration without reference pressure (dry calibration)
Example:
In this example, the volume in a tank should be measured in liters. The maximum volume of
1000 liters (264 US gal) corresponds to a level of 4.5 m (15 ft). The minimum volume of 0 liters
corresponds to a level of 0.5 m (1.6 ft) since the device is mounted below the start of the level
measuring range.
Prerequisite:
• The measured variable is in direct proportion to the pressure.
• This is a theoretical calibration i.e. the height and volume values for the lower and upper
calibration point must be known.
!
Note!
• The values for "Empty calib./Full calib.", "Empty height/Full height" and" Set LRV/Set URV"
must be at least 1% apart. The value will be rejected, and a warning message displayed, if the
values are too close together. Further limit values are not checked, i.e. the values entered must
be appropriate for the sensor and the measuring task for the measuring device to be able to
measure correctly.
• Due to the orientation of the device, there may be pressure shifts in the measured value, i.e. when
the container is empty or partly filled, the measured value is not zero. For information on how to
perform position adjustment, see  ä 56, "Position zero adjustment".
