EP-15 Fluid Level Calibration

The default calibration for the EP-15 Fluid Level is just as accurate as standard fluid level gauges. If, however, the tank has an irregular shape or greater accuracy is needed, calibration is recommended. The EP-15 Fluid Level has three calibration options: 2 point, 3 point and 5 point.

2-Point Calibration

A2-point calibration is best suited for rectangular or square-shaped tanks, where the capacity of the top half of the tank matches the capacity in the lower half of the tank. In a two-point calibration, you will set two points, one each for empty and full levels. You can begin calibration at either of the two points, but we recommend starting with an empty tank. You will fill the tank to complete calibration.

To execute 2-Point calibration:

1. Press MENU, select SYSTEM SETUP and press MENU.

2.Highlight B. DEVICES and press MENU, which will open the Bus Devices list.

3.Highlight the fluid level sensor you want to calibrate and press MENU, then select CAL (Calibrate) and press MENU. The Points menu will appear with three options: 2, 3 and 5.

4.Select 2 and press MENU. The Points menu will appear with two options: Empty Lev and Full Lev.

NOTE:

You DO NOT have to calibrate both points to complete the calibration and you can calibrate the points (Empty Level and Full Level) in any order you wish. Remember: Points that are not calibrated will not be as accurate as points that have been calibrated. For the greatest accuracy, we recommend both points be calibrated.

5.Make sure the tank is empty, then select EMPTY LEV from the Points menu and press MENU. The following message Tnk to Empty lev hit Menu. Press MENU and fill up the tank.

6.When the tank has been filled, follow steps 1-4 to access the Points menu. Highlight FULL LEV and press MENU. The following message will appear: Tnk to Full lev hit Menu. Press MENU and let the menus time out, which will take you to the main display.
