Configuration Parameters
Environment
Vapor Dielectric Constant Enter the dielectric constant (DC) for the vapor gas in the
tank. For normal air the vapor DC is close to 1.
In some applications there is heavy vapor above the product
surface having a significant influence on the level
measurement. In such cases the vapor dielectric can be
entered to compensate for this effect.
The default value is equal to 1 which corresponds to the
dielectric constant of air. Normally this value does not need to
be changed since the effect on measurement performance is
very small for most vapors.
Max Upper Product
Thickness
Configure the maximum possible thickness for the upper
product in this tank. This is the maximum thickness the
device will expect for this tank.
