    OPERATION OPTIFLEX 1300 C • Complete all the steps in the setup procedure. The instrument creates a table of up to 50 pairs of data (level - volume or level - mass). The reference point for the table is the tank bottom (as given in menu item C.1.2 Tank height.).

  • Page 94: Thresholds And Parasite Signals

    OPERATION OPTIFLEX 1300 C 6.4.9 Thresholds and parasite signals General notes The low-power electromagnetic signal from the instrument goes down the probe. The surface of the process and objects in the tank make reflections. These reflections go back up the probe to the signal converter.
  • Page 95 OPERATION OPTIFLEX 1300 C How to use thresholds NOTE! Although the data that follows refers to the level threshold, it is applicable for interface threshold and probe end thresholds. If there is a parasite above the level and the threshold is too low, the instrument can incorrectly use it as the level signal.
