How to calibrate level switch?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Suppose you using Float/ displacer type of level switch.
Do the followings:
1. Fill the process into chamber of level switching mark.
2. Contacts of level switch should be changed.
3. If already, closed contacts, then should change to open condition.
4. If contacts not changing, do the knob of switch to change.
Suppose you can not fill process into chamber.(Process may harmful, like ammonia etc).
1. Note the process specific gravity. Suppose it is 0.67.
2. Your height for level switching is 1000 mm.
3. Use water to fill into chamber for calibration instead of process.
4. 1000 x 0.67 = 670 mm
5. So fill into chamber up to 670 mm water. It will operate the switch.

Answer / mahalingam
The switches all are working in Digital mode.Like 0 or 1. To do the calibration confirm the NO & NC. Basically it is NC when the process reaches the desired level then the circuit will be NO.

we have LPG spherical Tank and we want to install DP Xmtr for level measurement.below are the physical measurements Total height of tank is 1850 mtr but 0% level is 1000mm above bottom and 100% level is 450 below upper side.What is the LRV and URV and please mention the formula .The SG of LPG is 0.53 and Wet Leg method will be used.
