Output
The Levelflex is preset at the factory to the probe length ordered so that in most cases only the application
parameters that automatically adapt the device to the measuring conditions need to be entered. For models
with a current output, the factory adjustment for zero point E and span F is 4 mA and 20 mA, for digital
outputs and the display module 0 % and 100 %. A linearization function with max. 32 points, which is based
on a table entered manually or semi-automatically, can be activated on site or via remote operation. This
function allows the level to be converted into units of volume or mass, for example.
