Function and system design

Measuring principle The Levelflex is a "downward-looking" measuring system that functions according to the ToF method (ToF = Time of Flight). The distance from the reference point to the product surface is measured. High-frequency pulses are injected to a probe and led along the probe. The pulses are reflected by the product surface, received by the electronic evaluation unit and converted into level information. This method is also known as TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry). Bei der Trennschichtmessung wird diese Methode mit einer kapazitiven Messung kombiniert.

R = reference point of measurement E = empty calibration (= zero) F = full calibration (= span) LN = probe length UB = upper blocking distance UP = thickness upper medium

SD = safety distance DL = distace level complete LL = level complete DI = distance interface (distance flange / DC2) LI = level interface (distance probe end / DC1)

Dielectric constant The dielectric constant (DC) of the medium has a direct impact on the degree of reflection of the highfrequency pulses. In the case of large DC values, such as for water or ammonia, there is strong pulse reflection while, with low DC values, such as for hydrocarbons, weak pulse reflection is experienced. Input The reflected pulses are transmitted from the probe to the electronics. There, a microprocessor analyzes the signals and identifies the level echo which was generated by the reflection of the high-frequency pulses at the product surface. This clear signal detection system benefits from over 30 years' experience with pulse timeofflight procedures that have been integrated into the development of the PulseMaster software. The distance D to the product surface is proportional to the time of flight t of the impulse: D = c t/2, where c is the speed of light. Based on the known empty distance E, the level L is calculated: L=ED Reference point for "E" see diagram above. The Levelflex possesses functions for interference echo suppression that can be activated by the user. They guarantee that interference echoes from e.g. internals and struts are not interpreted as level echoes.

Output The Levelflex is preset at the factory to the probe length ordered so that in most cases only the application parameters that automatically adapt the device to the measuring conditions need to be entered. For models with a current output, the factory adjustment for zero point E and span F is 4 mA and 20 mA, for digital outputs and the display module 0 % and 100 %. A linearization function with max. 32 points, which is based on a table entered manually or semi-automatically, can be activated on site or via remote operation. This function allows the level to be converted into units of volume or mass, for example. Interface measurement When the high-frequency pulses hit the surface of the medium, only a percentage of the transmission pulse is reflected. In the case of media with a low DC1, in particular, the other part penetrates the medium. The pulse is reflected once more at the interface point to a second medium with a higher DC2. The distance to the interface layer now can also be determined taking into account the delayed time-of-flight of the pulse through the upper medium. In addition to this, FMP55 measures the capacitance of the probe. This enables interface measurements even if the second echo is missing due to an emulsion layer between the two phases.

LL = level complete LI = level interface R = reference point of measurement

In addition, the following general conditions must be observed for interface measurement: The DK of the upper medium must be known and constant. The DK can be determined with the aid of the DK manual SD106F. In addition, whenever the interface thickness is existing and known, the DK can be calculated automatically via FieldCare. The DK of the upper medium may not be greater than 10. The DK difference between the upper medium and lower medium must be >10. The interface must have a minimum thickness of 60 mm (interface electronics version) or 100 mm (special version).

Measuring system

General notes on probe selection For interface measurement, ideally coax probes or rod probes are used in the bypass/stilling well. Coax probes are suited to liquids with viscosities of up to approx. 500 cst. Coax probes can measure most liquefied gases, as of a dielectric constant of 1.4. Moreover, installation conditions, such as nozzles, tank internal fittings etc., have no effect on the measurement when a coax probe is used. A coax probe offers maximum EMC safety when used in plastic tanks. Rod or rope probes for free installation in the tank available on request. Rope probes may not be used in the bypass/stilling well since the end weight always causes interference reflection which can be misinterpreted during interface measurement. Probe selection The various types of probe in combination with the process connections are suitable for the following applications:

Potential equalization

No special measures for potential equalization are required. If the device is designed for hazardous areas, observe the information in the documentation "Safety Instructions" (XA, ZD).

Overvoltage protection

If the measuring device is used for level measurement in flammable liquids which requires the use of overvoltage protection according to DIN EN 60079-14, standard for test procedures 60060-1 (10 kA, pulse 8/20 ms), overvoltage protection has to be ensured by one of the following measures: Integrated overvoltage protection (in preparation); Product structure: Feature 610 "Accessory mounted", option NA "Overvoltage protection". External overvoltage protection, e.g. Endress+Hauser's HAW262Z.

Pipe diameter: > 40 mm (1.6") for rod probes Rod probe installation can take place up to a diameter size of 100 mm. In the event of larger diameters, a coax probe is recommended. Side disposals, holes or slits and welded joints that protrude up to approx. 5 mm (0.2") inwards do not influence the measurement. The pipe may not exhibit any steps in diameter. The probe must be 100 mm longer than the lower disposal. Within the measuring range, the probe must not get into contact with the pipe wall. If necessary, use a center washer (see feature 610 of the product structure). Within the measuring range, the probe must not get into contact with the pipe wall. If necessary, use a PFA center washer (see feature 610 of the product structure). Coax probes can always be applied if there is enough mounting space.

Cleaning the probe

Depending on the application, contamination or buildup can accumulate on the probe. A thin, even layer only influences measurement slightly. Thick layers can dampen the signal and then reduce the measuring range. Severe, uneven buildup, adhesion e.g. through crystallization, can lead to incorrect measurement. In this case, we recommend that you use a non-contact measuring principle, or check the probe regularly for soiling. Electromagnetic compatibility to EN 61326 and NAMUR Recommendation EMC (NE21). Details are provided in the Declaration of Conformity. A standard installation cable is sufficient if only the analog signal is used. Use a shielded cable when working with a superimposed communications signal (HART). Maximum measured error: < 0.5 % of the span. When installing the probes in metal and concrete tanks and when using a coax probe: Interference emission to EN 61326 - x series, electrical equipment Class B. Interference immunity to EN 61326 - x series, requirements for industrial areas and NAMUR Recommendation NE 21 (EMC) The measured value can be affected by strong electromagnetic fields when installing rod and rope probes without a shielding/metallic wall, e.g. in plastic and wooden silos. Interference emission to EN 61326 - x series, electrical equipment Class A. Interference Immunity: the measured value can be affected by strong electromagnetic fields.

Integrated in tank gauging system The Endress+Hauser Tank Side Monitor NRF590 provides integrated communications for sites with multiple tanks, each with one or more sensors on the tank, such as radar, spot or average temperature, capacitive probe for water detection and/or pressure sensors. Multiple protocols out of the Tank Side Monitor guarantee connectivity to nearly any of the existing industry standard tank gauging protocols. Optional connectivity of analog 4...20 mA sensors, digital I/O and analog output simplify full tank sensor integration. Use of the proven concept of the intrinsically safe HART bus for all on-tank sensors yields extremely low wiring costs, while at the same time providing maximum safety, reliability and data availability.

System integration via Fieldgate Vendor Managed Inventory By using Fieldgates to interrogate tank or silo levels remotely, suppliers of raw materials can provide their regular customers with information about the current supplies at any time and, for example, account for them in their own production planning. For their part, the Fieldgates monitor the configured level limits and, if required, automatically activate the next supply. The spectrum of options here ranges from a simple purchasing requisition via e-mail through to fully automatic order administration by coupling XML data into the planning systems on both sides. Remote maintenance of measuring equipment Fieldgates not only transfer the current measured values, they also alert the responsible standby personnel, if required, via e-mail or SMS. In the event of an alarm or also when performing routine checks, service technicians can diagnose and configure connected HART devices remotely. All that is required for this is the corresponding HART operating tool (e.g. FieldCare, ...) for the connected device. Fieldgate passes on the information transparently, so that all options for the respective operating software are available remotely. Some on-site service operations can be avoided by using remote diagnosis and remote configuration and all others can at least be better planned and prepared.
