Volume – Sensor Output Units (Vertical Cylinder Example):   
Enter the dimensions of the tank. You must 
enter data in all fields shown. 
Sensor Height:  Distance from the bottom of 
the tank to the bottom of the sensor.    
Fill Height:  Distance from the bottom of the 
tank to the operational full level of liquid 
(20mA).  This setting defines the location of 
full current output and is the top of the 
sensor’s measurement range. 
Riser Height:  Distance the sensor is above 
the top of the tank (including all fittings). 
Measured from the bottom of the sensor. 
 
Tank Height:  Distance from the bottom of the tank to the top of the straight side wall. 
Diameter:  Distance of the inside tank diameter. 
Volume – Tank Capacity (Vertical Cylinder Example):  After entering the dimensions, press the Capacity 
button to show the Calculated Capacity of the tank.  If the Calculated Capacity is slightly different than the 
expected capacity, click on the Adjust Capacity box and enter the expected capacity of the tank.  If the 
Adjusted Capacity is more than 10% of the Calculated Capacity, recheck the dimensions information entered 
above.  
 
When all dimensions are entered, press the Apply button to return to the previous Configuration window. 
 
  Apply – Transfers the dimensions to the original Configuration window. 
  Tanks – Returns to the previous Shape Selection window. 
  Cancel – Returns to the Configuration window without saving any information.
