    Marking at the antenna socket Hexagon screws on the antenna socket Antenna Mounting preparations - Parabolic antenna The instrument is also available in versions where the antenna has a diameter larger than the process fitting (thread, flange). With such versions the antenna must be disconnected from the process fitting before mounting. Proceed as follows: 1. Clamp VEGAPULS 62 with the flange, e.g. in a bench vice VEGAPULS 62 • HART and accumulator pack...

    2. In the menu item "Medium"you select the medium of your applica- tion, for example "Aqueous solution". 3. Select in the menu item "Application" the vessel, the application and the vessel form, for example, storage tank. 4. Carry out the adjustment in the menu items "Min. adjustment" and "Max. adjustment". VEGAPULS 62 • HART and accumulator pack...
  • Page 15 This is generally recommended; for using the As- set Management functions it is absolutely necessary. If possible, the curve should be saved with a low level in the vessel. With the adjustment software PACTware and the PC, the high resolu- tion echo curve can be displayed and used to recognize signal changes over the operating time. In addition, the echo curve of the setup can be also displayed in the echo curve window and compared with the actual echo curve. VEGAPULS 62 • HART and accumulator pack...
  • Page 16 5. All interfering signals in this section are detected by the sensor and stored after confirming with [OK]. Note: Check the distance to the product surface, because if an incorrect (too large) value is entered, the existing level will be saved as a false echo. The filling level would then no longer be detectable in this area. If a false signal suppression has already been created in the sensor, the following menu window appears when selecting "False signal suppression": VEGAPULS 62 • HART and accumulator pack...
  • Page 17 When selecting "Extend", the distance to the product surface of the created false signal suppression is displayed. This value can now be changed and the false signal suppression can be extended to this range. VEGAPULS 62 • HART and accumulator pack...
