Define the measurement duty
Start with a tank drawing and a process description. Record the vessel height, normal operating level, lowest and highest expected level, filling and emptying conditions and whether the required result is distance, level or calculated volume. A continuous level transmitter and an independent high-level protection function should be specified and assessed separately.
Review the medium and vapor space
Provide the liquid name, concentration, temperature and pressure. Describe foam, agitation, condensation, vapor, dust or changing dielectric conditions where relevant. These conditions can affect the suitability and installation of non-contact measurement. Material compatibility must be checked for every part exposed to the process, including the antenna, process seal and connection.
Check the installation geometry
Show the nozzle diameter and height, roof shape and the location of ladders, coils, inlet streams, braces and other internal objects. The measuring path should avoid obstructions and strong filling jets. Confirm the required blanking distance or near-range limitation against the highest possible level. Do not assume that a transmitter can be installed on an existing nozzle without checking its drawing.
Compare WESIVO candidates
The WESIVO RD08A is an 80 GHz radar level transmitter candidate, while the WESIVO UL550A provides an ultrasonic route. Their suitability depends on the specific medium, tank geometry, process conditions, output and ordered configuration. Ask WESIVO to review the application data and confirm the applicable product documentation before quotation.
Commission against known references
Agree the empty and full reference positions before configuration. Verify the displayed value and control-system scaling at accessible known levels, and document the reference point used by the transmitter. If volume is calculated, validate the tank geometry or strapping table separately from the level signal.
先明确测量任务
从储罐图纸和工艺说明开始，记录罐体高度、正常液位、预计最低和最高液位、进出料工况，并明确需要距离、液位还是换算容积。连续液位测量与独立高液位保护功能应分别提出要求并进行评估。
核对介质和气相空间
提供液体名称、浓度、温度和压力，并说明泡沫、搅拌、冷凝、蒸汽、粉尘或介电条件变化。上述因素可能影响非接触式测量的适用性和安装方式。所有接触过程介质的部件，包括天线、过程密封和连接，都需要核对材质兼容性。
检查安装结构
标注短管直径与高度、罐顶形状，以及梯子、盘管、进料流、支撑和其他内部构件的位置。测量路径应避开障碍物和强烈进料冲击，并将仪表盲区或近端限制与最高可能液位对应核对。不能在没有图纸核对的情况下，直接认为现有短管适合安装。
比较 WESIVO 选型入口
WESIVO RD08A 可作为 80 GHz 雷达液位变送器的选型入口，WESIVO UL550A 提供超声波方案。是否适用取决于具体介质、罐体结构、过程工况、输出和订货配置。报价前应请 WESIVO 根据应用资料核对，并确认适用的产品文件。
依据已知参考点调试
配置前约定空罐和满罐参考位置，在可核对的已知液位检查现场显示和控制系统换算，并记录仪表采用的参考点。如果需要换算容积，应另行核实罐体几何信息或罐容表，不能只验证液位信号。
