Configuring the range for a DP transmitter
Open tank:
- Flanged DP transmitter
- high side at lower flange
- no remote seals:
- units: water column units = uwc
- LRV = 0.00 uwc
- URV = physical upper level elevation (uwc) * specific
gravity of fluid
Closed tank:
- flanged DP transmitter
- high side at lower flange
- no remote seals
- dry leg from vapor space above liquid is piped/connected
to the low side
- LRV = 0.00 uwc
- URV = physical upper level elevation (uwc) * specific
gravity of fluid
When the receiver (DCS/PLC/indicator/recorder) receives the
level signal, it converts to physical level elevation by
dividing the process level signal by the specific gravity
and scaling to physical level units.
Volumetric flow rate with DP transmitter on DP flow element:
- units: water column units = uwc
- LRV = 0.00
- URV = maximum DP value at the maximum flow rate stated
on the sizing sheet of the DP flow element
Whether the signal is square rooted in the transmitter or
in the receiver for conversion to flow rate is up to the
plant convention/standards.

I was working on calibrating turbidity transmitters endress+hauser at effluent polishing plant.We calibrated using NTU buffers.What happened is that when we immersed the sensor, everytime we raise and lower the sensor gradually, the reading will vary.my question is that is there any specifications on what is the required distance from the bottom of the container with buffer to the face of the sensor?Is it ok to install the sensor in a medium which has turbulence specially if bubbles are present?
