5.4.1 Information on level measurement
!
Note!
• A Quick Setup menu is available for each of the measuring modes Pressure and Level which
guides you through the most important basic functions. → For the "Level" Quick Setup menu,
see → ä 28.
• Furthermore, three level modes are available for the level measurement, namely "Level easy
pressure", Level easy height" and "Level standard". For the "Level standard" level mode, you
can choose between the "Linear", "Pressure linearized" and "Height linearized" level types.
The table in the "Overview of level measurement" section that follows provides you with an
overview of the various measuring tasks.
– With regard to the "Level easy pressure" and "Level easy height" level modes, the values
entered are not tested as extensively as in the "Level standard" level mode. In the "Level
easy pressure" and "Level easy height" level modes, the values entered for EMPTY
CALIBRATION/FULL CALIBRATION, EMPTY PRESSURE/FULL PRESSURE and EMPTY
HEIGHT/FULL HEIGHT have to be at least 1 % apart. If the values are too close together,
the value is rejected and the system outputs a message. Other limit values are not checked,
i.e. for the device to be able to perform correct measurement, the values entered have to
suit the sensor and the measuring task.
– The "Level easy pressure" and "Level easy height" level modes comprise fewer parameters
than the "Level standard" mode and are used to quickly and easily configure a level
application.
– Customer-specific units of level, volume and mass, or a linearization table, can only be
entered in the "Level standard" level mode.

Instructions BA00303P "Cerabar S/Deltabar S/Deltapilot S, Description of Device
