4.3.3 E3 Modulevel Configuration Parameters
The following parameters within the Modulevel Transducer
Block are required to configure each E3 Modulevel.
LEVEL_UNITS: Select the units in which level parameters
Liquid
are displayed (cm, in, feet, meters). ( in figure 14)
Level
PROCESS_SG: Enter the specific gravity of the process
liquid at operating conditions. (Πin figures 14 & 15)
➀ ^{Process S.G.}
PROCESS_TEMPERATURE: Enter the process operating
➃
temperature. ( in figures 14 & 15)
Level Offset
➁ Operating
Temp.
➂
In, cm, m, or ft.
LEVEL_OFFSET: Enter the desired level output at the zero
reference (bottom of displacer or centerline of bottom-side
process connection). (Ž in figures 14 & 15)

4.3.4 Offset Description
Side-Side Process Connections
The parameter referred to as LEVEL_OFFSET in the
Transducer Block is the desired level reading when the liquid
is at the zero reference point of the E3 Modulevel.
On the top mounted models E3A and E3B, the zero refer-
ence is the bottom of the displacer (not including the hook).
On a side-bottom mounted models E3C and E3D, it is the
length of the level range below the centerline of the upper-
side process connection.

Top Mount Installation
On side-side mounted models E3E and E3F, the zero refer-
ence is the centerline of the bottom-side process connection.
Unit is shipped from factory with Level Offset = 0.
Example: Application of an external cage model E3E
with a 48" level range is mounted with the centerline of
the bottom-side process connection 12" from the bottom
of the vessel. 0% point shall be at the bottom of the ves-
sel and 100% at the length of the level range above the
bottom of the vessel. Level Offset = 12" must be entered
into the E3 menu. See Figure 14.
4.4 User-Calibration Parameters
4.4.1 User Calibration Procedure
One of the main advantages of the E3 Modulevel transmitter
is that the device does not need to be calibrated in the field.
Every E3 Modulevel transmitter is shipped from the factory
precisely calibrated, requiring only configuration by the user
in the field.
On the other hand, part of the advantage of FOUNDATION
fieldbus^™ is to provide the ability to monitor changes and
adjustments to a transmitter. For minor calibration adjust-
ments to the measured value, trim parameters are available.
