Commissioning without the commissioning wizard

Example: Commissioning a volume measurement in the tankPressure and temperature units are converted automatically. Other units are notconverted.
In the following example, the volume in a tank should be measured in liters. The
maximum volume of 1 000 l (264 gal) corresponds to a pressure of 450 mbar (6.75 psi).
The minimum volume of 0 liters corresponds to a pressure of 50 mbar (0.75 psi).
Prerequisites:• Measured variable in direct proportion to the pressure• Due to the orientation of the device, there may be pressure shifts in the measured value(when the vessel is empty or partly filled, the measured value is not zero)
Perform position adjustment if necessary

Applications with jumps in temperature
Extreme jumps in temperature can result in temporary measuring errors. Temperaturecompensation takes place after a few minutes. Internal temperature compensation isfaster the smaller the jump in temperature and the longer the time interval involved.
For more information: contact the Endress+Hauser sales office.

Process pressure range

Pressure specifications

LWARNING
The maximum pressure for the device depends on the lowest-rated component withregard to pressure (components are: process connection, optional mounted parts oraccessories).
‣ Only operate the device within the specified limits for the components!
‣ MWP (maximum working pressure): The MWP is specified on the nameplate. Thisvalue refers to a reference temperature of +20 °C (+68 °F) and may be applied to thedevice for an unlimited time. Note temperature dependence of MWP. For flanges, referto the following standards for the permitted pressure values at higher temperatures:
EN 1092-1 (with regard to their stability/temperature property, the materials 1.4435
and 1.4404 are grouped together under EN 1092-1; the chemical composition of thetwo materials can be identical.), ASME B 16.5a, JIS B 2220 (the latest version of thestandard applies in each case). MWP data that deviate from this are provided in therelevant sections of the Technical Information.
The
overpressure limit is the maximum pressure a device may be subjected to during a‣test. It is greater than the maximum working pressure by a certain factor. This valuerefers to a reference temperature of +20 °C (+68 °F).
‣ The Pressure Equipment Directive (2014/68/EU) uses the abbreviation "PS". The
abbreviation "PS" corresponds to the MWP (maximum working pressure) of the device.
‣ In the case of measuring cell range and process connection combinations where theoverpressure limit (OPL) of the process connection is smaller than the nominal value ofthe measuring cell, the device is set at the factory, at the very maximum, to the OPL
value of the process connection. If the entire measuring cell range must be used, selecta process connection with a higher OPL value (1.5 x PN; MWP = PN).
Oxygenapplications: do not exceed values for Pmax and Tmax.
‣
Burst pressure
As of the specified burst pressure, the complete destruction of the pressure-bearing parts
and/or a device leak must be expected. It is therefore imperative to avoid such operating
conditions by carefully planning and sizing your facility.
Ultrapure gas applications

68

Endress+Hauser also offers devices for special applications, such as for ultrapure gas, thatare cleaned of oil and grease. No special restrictions regarding the process conditions apply
to these devices.
