In the menu item "Sensor TAG" you edit a twelve-digit measurement
loop designation.
You can enter an unambiguous designation for the sensor, e.g. the
measurement loop name or the tank or product designation. In digital
systems and in the documentation of larger plants, a singular desig-
nation must be entered for exact identification of individual measuring
points.
The available digits include:
•
Letters from A ... Z
•
Numbers from 0 ... 9
•
Special characters +, -, /, -
Every medium has different reflective properties. With liquids, there
are additional interfering factors such as turbulent product surface
and foam generation. With bulk solids, the additional interfering fac-
tors are dust generation, angle of repose and secondary echoes from
the vessel wall.
To adapt the sensor to these different measuring conditions, the
selection "Liquid" or "Bulk solid" should be made in this menu item.
Through this selection, the sensor is optimally adapted to the product,
and measurement reliability, particularly in products with poor reflec-
tive properties, is considerably increased.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your
settings with [OK] and jump to the next menu item with the [ESC] and
the [->] key.
In addition to the medium, also the application, i.e. the measuring site,
can influence the measurement.
With this menu item, the sensor can be adapted to the applications.
The adjustment possibilities depend on the selection "Liquid" or "Bulk
solid" under "Medium".
The following options are available when "Liquid" is selected:
