BD Blocking distance D Distance from sensor membrane - product surface
E Empty distance F Span (full distance)
L Level
Time-of-flight method
The sensor of the instrument transmits ultrasonic pulses in the direction of the product surface. There, they are
reflected back and received by the sensor. The instrument measures the time t between pulse transmission and
reception. The instrument uses the time t (and the velocity of sound c) to calculate the distance D between the
sensor membrane and the product surface:
D = c t/2
As the device knows the empty distance E from a user entry, it can calculate the level as follows:
L = E - D
An integrated temperature sensor (NTC) compensates for changes in the velocity of sound caused by
temperature changes.
Interference echo suppression
The interference echo suppression feature on the instrument ensures that interference echos (e.g. from edges,
welded joints and installations) are not interpreted as a level echo.
Calibration
Enter the empty distance E and the span F to calibrate the device.
Blocking distance
Span F may not extend into the blocking distance BD. Level echos within the blocking distance cannot be
evaluated due to the transient characteristics of the sensor.

Input
Measured variable The distance D between the sensor membrane and the product surface is measured, see also figure ä3.
Using the linearization function, the device uses D to calculate:
• Level L in any units
• Volume V in any units
• Flow Q across measuring weirs or open channels in any units
Measuring range The measuring range is limited by the range of a sensor. The sensor range is, in turn, dependent on the
operating conditions. To estimate the actual range, proceed as follows (see also the calculation example in the
diagram):
1. Determine which of the influences shown in the following table are appropriate for your process.
2. Add the corresponding attenuation values.
3. From the total attenuation, use the diagram to calculate the range.
Fluid surface Attenuation

Waves 5 to 10 dB
Strong turbulence (e.g. stirrers) 10 to 20 dB

Output signal 4 to 20 mA
Signal on alarm Error information can be accessed via the following interfaces:
• On-site display (error symbol, error code and plain text description)
• Current output, signal on error can be selected (e.g. according to NAMUR recommendation NE43)
Output damping Freely selectable, 0 to 255 s
Linearization The linearization function of the instrument allows conversion of the measured value into any unit of length
or volume. In open channels or measuring weirs, also a flow linearization is possible (calculation of the flow
from the measured level).
The linearization table for calculating the volume in an horizontal cylindrical tank is preprogrammed. You can
also enter any number of other tables containing up to 32 value pairs either manually or semi-automatically (by
filling the vessel under controlled conditions).

Influence of the vapor
pressure
The vapor pressure at 20 °C (68 °F) gives a hint on the accuracy of the ultrasonic level measurement. If the
vapor pressure at 20 °C (68 °F) is below 50 mbar (1 psi), ultrasonic level measurement is possible with a very
high accuracy. This is valid for water, aqueous solutions, water-solid-solutions, dilute acids (hydrochloric acid,
sulfuric acid, ...), dilute bases (caustic soda, ...), oils, greases, slurries, pastes, ...
High vapor pressures or outgassing media (ethanol, acetone, ammonia, ...) can influence the accuracy. If
conditions like these are present, please contact your Endress+Hauser sales representative.

• Do not install the sensor in the middle of the tank (3). We recommend leaving a distance between the sensor
and the tank wall (1) measuring 1/6 of the tank diameter.
• Protect the device against direct sun or rain (2) ä26 "Weather protection cover".
• Avoid measurements through the filling curtain (4).
• For solid application where bulk solid cones appear, align the sensor membrane perpendicular to the surface.
• Make sure that equipment (5) such as limit switches, temperature sensors, etc. are not located within the
emitting angle . In particular, symmetrical equipment (6) such as heating coils, baffles etc. can influence
measurement.
• Never install two ultrasonic measuring devices in a tank, as the two signals may affect each other.
• To estimate the detection range, use the 3 dB emitting angle .

In narrow shafts with strong interference echoes, we
recommend using an ultrasound guide pipe (e.g. PE
or PVC wastewater pipe) with a minimum diameter
of 100 mm (3.94 in).
Make sure that the pipe is not soiled by accumulated
dirt. If necessary, clean the pipe at regular intervals.

into account the blocking distance BD).
• Position the instrument in the middle of the channel or weir.
• Align the sensor membrane parallel to the water surface.
• Keep to the installation distance of the channel or weir.

Blocking distance,
nozzle installation
Install the instrument at a height so that the blocking distance BD is not undershot, even at maximum fill level.
Use a pipe nozzle if you cannot maintain the blocking distance in any other way. The interior of the nozzle
must be smooth and may not contain any edges or welded joints. In particular, there should be no burr on the
inside of the tank side nozzle end. Note the specified limits for nozzle diameter and length. To minimise
disturbing factors, we recommend an angled socket edge (ideally 45°).

Caution!
If the blocking distance is undershot, it may cause device malfunction.
Note!
In order to notice if the level approaches the blocking distance, you can specify a safety distance (SD). If the
level is within this safety distance, the instrument outputs a warning or alarm message.
