Upper medium (L2)
•
The upper medium must not be conductive
•
The dielectric constant of the upper medium must be known (input
required). Min. dielectric constant: rod version 1.6. You can nd a
list of dielectric constants on our home page: www.vega.com
•
The composition of the upper medium must be stable, no varying
products or mixtures
•
The upper medium must be homogeneous, no stratications
within the medium
•
Min. thickness of the upper medium 50 mm (1.97 in)
•
Clear separation from the lower medium, no emulsion phase, no
mull layer
•
If possible, no foam on the surface
Lower medium (L1)
•
The dielectric constant must be 10 higher than the dielectric
constant of the upper medium, preferably electrically conductive.
Example: upper medium dielectric constant 2, lower medium at
least dielectric constant 12.
Gas phase (L3)
•
Air or gas mixture
•
Gas phase - dependent on the application, gas pahse does not
always exist (d2 = 0)
The instrument is always preset to the application "Level measure-
ment".
