2.3 Operation
2.3.1 Display
For operation of the display and the information on it (if applicable), refer tot the instruction manual of the related
level gauge or indicator. Below, only an overview is given which display formats gives information about the
average temperature measurement.
Product level and average product temperature
Average gas temperature and status
Average product temperature and status
2.3.2 Data items
Table 2 – 3 lists a number of data items. They contain measured data, verification data and error data. The
verification data can be used to check the results of certain steps in the measuring sequence. The temperature
status indicates the validity of the measured data. The error data provides low level error information about the
temperature measurement (refer to section 2.4).

Table 2 – 3
Item V0 is the temperature of the lowest spot element.
The calculated spot position item U0 corresponds with item V0.
Refer to figures 2.1 and 2.2 to locate the lowest spot (L) with each particular temperature probe model.
