Siemens LU01 Material Volume, Example 2 Space Measurement, Description Instructions, 5ft

Page 98

Technical Reference

When the dust settles (and the echo is regained) the reported level advances toward the actual level. When the reported level reaches 25.55 m (5% of Span less than the high high alarm trip point), the high high alarm goes off, restarting the infeed and filling the vessel to 27.00 m.

Material Volume

To perform a volume conversion for the preceding example, we'll assume:

the vessel is cylindrically shaped with a flat bottom.

the vessel volume for Empty to 29.01 m (Span) is 1457 m3.

Instructions

P050

Tank Shape

Enter "1" for vertical cylinder with flat bottom.

P051

Max Volume

Enter "1457" for 1457 m3.

Now in the RUN mode the Reading represents material volume in m3.

Example 2 - Space Measurement

This mode of operation is commonly used when remaining vessel capacity is of more importance to the installation than the actual material level.

Space

For this example we'll assume the following:

the vessel is a 3 ft diameter by 15 ft long cylinder (including the parabolic ends of 1.5 ft each).

the maximum vessel filling rate is 1 ft per minute (slower at mid level).

a mA output scaled from 4 mA at Full to 20 mA at Empty is required for PLC operation.

in the event of a measurement difficulty, failsafe operation is to be activated in 6 seconds.

if the difficulty doesn't subside, the mA output must immediately assume 22.00 mA.

an XCT-8 transducer is mounted in a standpipe so that the face is 18 in. above the vessel top.

a TS-3 temperature sensor is mounted in the vessel to monitor liquid temperature.
