C.7 VOLUME
CONFIGURATION
To configure the Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub for volume calculations, choose
one of the standard tank shapes, or the strapping table option, see Table C-4
on page C-15. Select None if volume calculation is not used. For the standard
tanks, a Volume Offset parameter can be specified to be used for a non-zero
volume that corresponds to the Zero Level. This may be useful, for example, if
you like to include the product volume below the zero level.
Volume calculation is performed by using a predefined tank shape or a
strapping table. One of the following standard tank shapes can be chosen:
• Sphere
• Horizontal Cylinder
• Vertical Cylinder
The following parameters must be entered for a standard tank shape:
• Tank diameter
• Tank length (for horizontal cylinder)
• Volume Offset (use this parameter if you like to include product volume
below the zero level)
Strapping Table
The Strapping Table option should be used when the tank shape deviates
significantly from an ideal sphere or cylinder, or when high volume accuracy is
required.
The Strapping Table divides the tank into segments. Level values and
corresponding volumes are entered starting at the bottom of the tank. These
figures can typically be obtained from tank drawings or from a certificate
provided by the tank manufacturer. A maximum of 100 strapping points can
be entered. For each level value the corresponding total volume up to the
specified level is entered.
The volume value is interpolated if the product surface is between two level
values in the table.
