5.13LEVEL GAUGE CALIBRATION

5.13.1Manual Adjustment

Normally a minor level gauge adjustment is needed in order to achieve good agreement between measured and actual product levels. For example, a deviation may result from minor errors in tank geometry parameters such as the tank height (R) or the position of the Gauge Reference Point (see the Rosemount 5900S Radar Level Gauge reference manual, Document No. 300520EN, for more information on tank geometry).

The Rosemount 5900S level gauge can be calibrated by using the Calibration Distance parameter. It can be manually adjusted in the

5900S Properties/Geometry window, or you may use the Calibrate function to let WinSetup automatically calculate an optimized Calibration Distance based on measurement data and hand dipping at different product levels.

NOTE!

For a comprehensive description of how to calibrate a Rosemount 5900S Radar Level Gauge see the Rosemount 5900S Reference Manual (Document No. 300520EN).

A Rosemount 5900S level gauge can be calibrated manually by adjusting the Calibration Distance parameter(1). By comparing a hand dipped level value with the product level measured by the level gauge, a Calibration Distance value can be calculated according to the formula:

New Calibration Distance=Old Calibration Distance+ΔL, where ΔL=observed level (hand dip) - gauge level reading.

To change the Calibration Distance stored in the gauge database:

1.Select the level gauge icon in the WinSetup workspace.

2.Click the right mouse-button and choose the Properties option.

3.Select the Geometry tab.

4.Type the Calibration Distance value in the corresponding input field and click the OK button.

See “Installing a Rosemount 5900S Radar Level Gauge” on page 5-51and the Rosemount 5900S Reference Manual (Document No. 300520EN) for further information.

(1)For non-standard antennas the Tank Connection Length (TCL) may need to be adjusted as well.
