how to calibrate the radar transmitter for measuring the exact tank level if tank is having agitat..

Answer / sam

Just increase the damping on the radar's 4 to 20mA output.
This should stabilize the output, even if the local display
still jumps around.
In the DCS there is also damping that will help with the
input from the radar.
You will never be able to measure an "exact" level in a
turbulent application like this so the best you can do is to
use the average over a period of time and that is what the
damping does. It smooths out the ripples in the output by
taking samples of the level measurement and then give a
average output.
Good luck

Answer / jayesh

there are sensors available which allows you to select the
nature of fluid like weather it is turbulent of steady so
according to that it adds the damping factor to it and
gives you out put

We have a Yokogawa Micro-XL DCS, which is having around 300 I/O, but whenever there is any wire gets grounded in field, the 24v supply to all loops gets dipped & all the indications at DCS goes to IOP(shows input open), at present we have fixed 500mA fuses in all the lines but which does not working. Does it required to replace with lower amps fuse, then how much or is there any other solution for this.
