To carry out this adjustment the distance is entered with full and empty vessel If these values are not known an adjustment with the distance values e g 10 and 90 is also possible Starting point for these distance specifications is always the seal surface of the thread or flange With these settings the real level is calculated Furthermore the operating range of the sensor is limited from maximum to the required range The real product level during this adjustment is not important because the min max adjustment is always carried out without changing the product level These settings can be made ahead of time without the instrument having to be installed In the main menu item Basic adjustment the individual submenu items should be selected one after the other and provided with the correct parameter values Start your parameter adjustment with the following menu items of the basic adjustment Proceed as follows 26 VEGAFLEX 67 4 20 mA HART two wire 6c 0c L N3 0 c 32303 EN 120329 VEGA 6 Set up with the indicating and adjustment module PLICSCOM 1 Move from the measured value display to the main menu by pushing OK gt Basic adjustment Display Diagnostics Service Info 2 Selectthe menu item Basic adjustment with gt and confirm with OK Now the menu item Dielectric value is displayed Dielectric value Upper medium 000 3 Enter the dielectric figure DK value o

You can give your instrument additional protection against moisture penetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of the cable entry Rain and condensation water can thus drain off This applies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areas where high humidity is expected e g through cleaning processes or on cooled or heated vessels VEGAFLEX 67 4 20 mA HART two wire 11 4 Mounting Measuring range Pressure Mounting position Fig 3 Measures against moisture penetration The reference plane for the measuring range of the sensors is the sealing surface of the thread or flange Keep in mind that a min distance must be maintained below the reference plane and possibly also at the end of the probe measurement in these areas is not possible dead band Particularly the cable length cannot be used all the way to the end because measurement in the area of the gravity weight is not possible These dead bands are listed in chapter Technical data Keep in mind for the adjustment that the default setting for the measuring range refers to water The process fitting must be sealed if there is gauge or low pressure in the vessel Before use check if the seal material is resistant against the measured product and the process temperature The max permissible pressure is specified in chapter Technical data or on the type label of the sensor 4 2 Instructions
