Rosemount Raptor
Section 5. Installing a Raptor Level Gauging System
Tank Environment
Certain tank conditions may require additional configuration of the 5900S
Radar Level Gauge in order to optimize measurement performance. By
considering environmental conditions in the tank, the 5900S can compensate
for conditions such as rapid level change, weak echo signals, or varying
surface echo amplitudes.
To configure the 5900S Radar Level Gauge for special tank conditions:
1. In the 5900S RLG Properties window select the Environment tab:
2. Select the check boxes that correspond to the conditions in the tank.
Use as few options as possible. It is recommended that no more than
two options are used simultaneously.
3. Choose the Product Dielectric Range 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.
4. Click the OK button to save the configuration and close the window.
See the Rosemount 5900S Reference Manual (Document No. 300520EN) for
more information on tank environment settings.
