vessel wall (with solids). To adapt the sensor to these different
conditions, you should first select in this menu item "Liquid" or
"Solid".
Medium
Liquid
With solids, you can also choose between "Powder/Dust",
"Granular/Pellets" or "Ballast/Pebbels".
Through this additional selection, the sensor is adapted
perfectly to the product and measurement reliability, partic-
ularly in products with bad reflective properties, is considerably
increased.
Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save
your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [–>] key.
Apart from the medium, the shape of the vessel can also
influence the measurement. To adapt the sensor to these
conditions, this menu item offers (depending on either liquid or
solid is detected) different options. For Liquid these are
Storage tank, Stilling tube, Open vessel or Stirred vessel, for
Solid Silo or Bunker.

Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save
your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [–>] key.
To suppress fluctuation in the measured value display, e.g.
caused by a turbulent product surface, an integration time can
be set. This time can be between 0 and 999 seconds. Please
note that the reaction time of the entire measurement will be
longer and the sensor will react to quick changes of the
measured value with a corresponding delay. In general, a time
of a few seconds is sufficient to smooth the measured value
display.
