6.4.1 Function group "basic setup" (00)
Function "tank properties" (002)
This function is used to select the tank properties.
Options:
• Standard
• Aluminum tank
• Plastic tank
• Bypass / pipe
• Coax probe
• Concrete wall
Standard
The "standard" option is recommended for normal containers for rod and rope probes.
Aluminum tank
The "aluminum tank" option is designed especially for high aluminum silos that cause an increased
level of noise when empty. This option is only useful for probe lengths greater than 4 m. The
"standard" option must be selected for short probes (< 4 m)!
Note!
If "aluminum tank" is selected, the device calibrates of its own accord when first filled, depending
on the medium's properties. Slope errors can, therefore, occur when beginning the first filling
procedure.
Plastic tank
Select the "plastic tank" option when installing probes in wood or plastic containers without
metallic surfaces at the process connection (see installation in plastic containers). When using a
metallic surface at the process connection, the "standard" option is sufficient!
Note!
In principle, it is preferable to use a metallic surface at the process connection!
