In this menu item you select the linearization curve:l linearl Cylindrical tankl Spherical tankl User programmableUser programmable means: Switching on a linearization curveprogrammed via PC and PACTware™A linearization is necessary for all vessels in which the vesselvolume does not increase linearly with the level - e.g. with acylindrical or spherical tank - and the indication or output of thevolume is required. Corresponding linearization curves arepreprogrammed for these vessels. They represent thecorrelation between the level percentage and vessel volume.The linearization applies to the measured value indication andthe current output.By activating the appropriate curve, thevolume percentage of the vessel is displayed correctly. If thevolume should not be displayed in percent but e.g. in l or kg, ascaling can be also set in the menu item "Display".Factory setting is linear.

5.6 Saving the parameter adjustment dataIt is recommended noting the adjusted data, e.g. in thisoperating instructions manual and archive them afterwards.They are hence available for multiple use or service purposes.Alternatively the data can be loaded from the sensor into theindicating and adjustment module. The procedure is describedin the menu item "Copy sensor data". The data remain thereeven the power supply fails.If it is necessary to exchange the sensor, the indicating andadjustment module is inserted into the replacement instrumentand the data are written into the sensor under the menu item"Copy sensor data".

7 Dismounting7.1 Dismounting stepsWarning:Before dismounting, be aware of dangerous process con-ditions such as e.g. pressure in the vessel, high temperatures,corrosive or toxic products etc.

Take note of chapters "Mounting" and "Connecting to powersupply" and carry out the listed steps in reverse order.

7.2 DisposalThe indicating and adjustment module consists of materialswhich can recycled by specialised recycling companies. Wehave purposely designed the components to be easilyseparable.WEEE directive 2002/96/EGThis indicating and adjustment module is not subject to theWEEE directive 2002/96/EG and the respective national laws(in Germany, e.g. ElektroG). Pass the indicating and adjust-ment module directly on to a specialised recycling companyand do not use the municipal collecting points. They may onlybe used for privately used products according to the WEEEdirective.Correct disposal avoids negative effects to persons andenvironment and ensures recycling of useful raw materials.Materials: see "Technical data"If you cannot dispose of the instrument properly, pleasecontact us about disposal methods or return.
