horizontal cylinders
# Matrix Entry Remarks
1 V0H1 E Tank empty, current
level in %, m, ft
2 - »E« Register entry
3 V0H2 F Tank full, current
level in %, m, ft
4 - »E« Register entry
After calibration the level can be read off at
V0H0 in %, ft or m.
Linearisation, horizontal
cylinder
A volume measurement can be made by
calling the linearisation table for horizontal
cylinders. Two parameters are entered:
• Tank diameter, D
• Tank volume, V.

* If V =100 is entered, % volume is measured
OffsetThe linearisation starts at the tank bottom.
If the zero point of the calibration does not
start at the same point you must now enter
a
negative
offset in the units of calibration.

After linearisation• Volume is displayed at V0H0
• Level is displayed at V0H9
• Density correction, p. 29.
Next step…Set analogue output and relays in volume
units, see p. 30…33.
Note!
• For linearisation volume => level,
see Appendix, p 46.
