Particularities in "approved" operation

The 7500 RTG level radar is set to custody transfer mode after commissioning using a

custody locking switch (see page 36). The position of the custody locking switch is

secured and sealed using the sealing pin.

During custody transfer measurement, all custody transfer-relevant functions for

operation are automatically locked, so that the device software can not be used, either

via local operation or via digital communication settings. This locked status is displayed

by the key symbol ( ).

7500 RTG radar devices continuously monitor the compliance with accuracy

requirements for custody transfer measurements according to OIML R85. If, for

example, the accuracy cannot be maintained due to quick surface movements, this is

reported via a separate alarm in the local display (displays "#" symbol) and via digital

communication.
