Parameters
2.3.6.2. Fill Rate/Min
Defines the maximum rate at which the reported sensor value is allowed to
increase. Allows you to further adjust the SITRANS LR560 response to
increases in the actual material level. Fill Rate is automatically updated
whenever Response Rate (2.3.6.1.) is altered.
Enter a value slightly greater than the maximum vessel-filling rate, in units
per minute.
2.3.6.3. Empty rate/Min
Defines the maximum rate at which the reported sensor value is allowed to
decrease. Adjusts the SITRANS LR560 response to decreases in the actual
material level. Empty Rate is automatically updated whenever Response
Rate (2.3.6.1.) is altered.
Enter a value slightly greater than the vessel’s maximum emptying rate, in
units per minute.
2.4. Signal Processing
2.4.1. Near Range
The range in front of the device (measured from the sensor reference point
1)
)
within which any echoes will be ignored. (This is sometimes referred to as
"Blanking" or "Dead Zone".)
