5.7 Overview basic setup for level measurement
The following table gives an overview of the basic setup for level measurement. Detailed
information on the parameters can be found in the Operating Instructions BA00293F.
Step Parameter set Parameter Remarks
Configuring the sensor (Details Section 5.7.1)
1 → Sensor selection → Input Allocate a sensor to the channel.
→ Sensor selection Specify the type of sensor ("automatic" for FDU9x)
→ Detected Only available for "sensor selection" = "automatic";
indicates the detected type of sensor
2 → application parameter → Tank shape Select the appropriate values for your application.
→ Medium property
→ Process conditions
Empty and full calibration (Details Section 5.7.2)
3 → Empty calibration → Empty E Specify the distance between the reference point of
the sensor and the minimum level (0%).
4 → Full calibration → Full F Specify the distance between the minimum (0%)
and maximum (100%) level.
→ Blocking distance (BD) Display parameter; the maximum value for the full
calibration is:
F
max
= E - BD
5 → Unit level → Unit level Select the unit for the level measurement.
→ Level Displays the currently measured level.
→ Distance Displays the currently measured distance between
reference point of the sensor and the product level.
Linearization (Details Section 5.7.3)
If no linearization is required: continue by step 7: "distance correction"
