Primary measuring device (2.13.2.) (Page 240)
Dual-Point Difference (DPD) and Dual-Point Average (DPA)
Single-point model use
For DPD or DPA, the unit requires either two transducers of the same type, or one
transducer and one mA input. If two transducers are used, all transducer parameters
become indexed, and a third level point is calculated.
●
DPD (difference) = Point 1 - Point 2
●
DPA (average) = (Point 1 + Point 2)/2. The calculated DPD or DPA is always based on
level measurements of Points 1 and 2.
For these operations any of three level points (Transducer 1, Transducer 2, or the calculated
point) can be used to trigger relays [Level source (2.8.1.2.) (Page 194)].
The points must be globally set to either Dual-Point Difference or Dual-Point Average, as
required. Point 3 becomes the calculated value as shown above. See Setting a rake control
(Page 132).
Dual-point model use
To set a dual-point device for DPD or DPA functions, Point 3 must be set to either Dual-Point
Difference or Dual-Point Average, as required. Points 1 and 2 cannot be set do Dual-Point
Difference or Dual-Point Average, but these points are used to calculate the value in Point 3.
The calculated DPA is always based on level measurements of Points 1 and 2.
