Rosemount double-flange level gauge

2016-11-29View Original

Thread Content

After calibrating the zero point of the Rosemount double-flange level gauge, the liquid level starts to rise slowly after a while. However, it is measuring an empty tower with no fluid present; there should be no liquid level at all. What could be causing this? Could everyone please explain it? Thank you

Use the handheld device to check what the PV value is; the double flange should be relocated

Temperature changes in the capillary can cause variations in the measurement values.

It seems there’s a problem with the voice changer; let’s try replacing it with another one....

What’s the reason? Was migration done? Can you describe exactly how to adjust the zero point? ? ?

After the transmitter is installed, the value displayed is taken as the zero point.

First, perform the migration process. When the tank is empty, set the zero point once; otherwise, ask a Rosemount technician for the density of the silicone oil used to fill the capillaries. It’s also possible to calculate this value yourself before carrying out the migration. After the migration is complete, there might still be an issue related to temperature – as long as the temperature difference isn’t significant, it shouldn’t be a problem

I don’t think it has much to do with adjusting the zero point; I adjusted it three times today, and each time it rose slowly after staying at that level for a while. After the last adjustment, it’s now at 80 percent. This is in an empty container with no medium present. By the way, I’m in Kyrgyzstan, where the temperature is around zero degrees. Is it related to temperature? Is there any way to solve it? Thank you

First, it is necessary to ensure that the range setting is correct and that the migration calculations are accurate. Next, insulation should be applied to both flanges to see the effects. If insulating only the flanges is not sufficient, then insulation or heating should be applied to the capillary tube; it is best to do both. Heating it to around 25 degrees should work well

It’s likely that the transmitter’s zero point has shifted; there’s a problem with the transmitter. In the case of an empty tank, temperature plays a role, so it’s impossible for the temperature to rise to 80% on its own
