Rosemount Raptor
Section 5. Installing a Raptor Level Gauging System
Tank Environment
Certain product conditions in the tank may require special configuration
options to be used in order to optimize measurement performance of the 5400
Radar Level Transmitter. By configuring the environmental conditions in the
tank, the 5400 can compensate for conditions such as rapid level change,
weak echo signals, varying surface echo amplitudes, or other similar sources
of inaccurate measurement.
The 5400 RLT/Environment window is used to optimize the 5400 radar
transmitter for special tank conditions:
Product Condition options are set by selecting check boxes for the
appropriate tank conditions. It is recommended to select as few options as
possible and not more than two.
The Product Dielectric Range can be set from the drop-down list. Choose
the Unknown option if the correct value range is unknown or if the contents of
the tank is changing on a regular basis.
See the Rosemount 5400 Reference Manual (Document No.
00809-0100-4026) for more information on tank environment settings.
