This activity allows you to store the calibration information of the tanks that are defined earlier in the “Tank Information” activity. The tanks have a unique process of item measurements. The stock in the tank is measured through dips, that is, level / height based measurement. To convert this level measurement to a volume measurement, calibration of the tank becomes necessary. The information related to tank calibration is provided in this page.
The level values of the tank are required to be converted to volume values. The calibration charts for this conversion can be of two types, namely, direct and slab.
In slab type, the conversion factor varies depending on the slab specified. For example, for heights ranging between 0 and 100, the conversion factor could be specified as 10, and for heights between 100 and 200, the conversion factor may be 25. So, if the current height is 125, the volume can be determined as (100 – 0) * 10 + (125 – 100) * 25.
In case of direct calibration chart, the conversion factor is not specified in slabs. Instead, the volume is found as the value of the volumes between the levels that the current level falls between. For example, suppose for level 0, the volume is specified as 100, for level 100, it is 2000 and for level 1000, the volume is 20000. Then if the level is 225, the volume is calculated as 100 + (20000 – 2000 / 1000 – 100) * (225 – 100).
Select the “Tank Calibration Information” link under the “Continuous Process Model“ business component.
