SPAN
This figure is the measuring range of the instrument i.e. distance from the bottom of the tank to the highest point being
measured. Remember, the material must not approach within 0.50 meters of the transducer face or within the blanking
distance of the transducer.
DEFAULT 10.00 m
BLANKING
This is the area where an echo cannot be processed because the return echo would be received while the transducer
is still firing.
DEFAULT 0.50 m
RATE OF CHANGE
This is used to set up the rate of change of the level output. The rate of change governs the rate at which the instrument
output change. By increasing the rate of change (4.00 m/min) it will allow the KSONIK MICRO to monitor rapid changes
in level. If the level moves faster than 1 m/minute in measurement increase the rate of change. If a more stable output is
required decrease the rate of change (0.30 m/min).
DEFAULT 1.00 m/min
APPLICATION
This selection can be used to select either liquid or solid applications. The solid application will provide more power to
locate the correct echo.
