4.7.1 Set up the API referral application using ProLink III
This section guides you through the tasks required to set up and implement the API
referral application.
1. Enable the API referral application using ProLink III
2. Configure API referral using ProLink III
3. Set up temperature and pressure data for API referral using ProLink III
Enable the API referral application using ProLink III
The API referral application must be enabled before you can perform any setup. If the API
referral application was enabled at the factory, you do not need to enable it now.
1. Choose Device Tools > Configuration > Transmitter Options.
2. If the concentration measurement application is enabled, disable it and click Apply.
The concentration measurement application and the API referral application cannot
be enabled simultaneously.
3. Enable API Referral and click Apply.
Configure API referral using ProLink III
The API referral parameters specify the API table, measurement units, and reference values
to be used in referred density calculations.
Prerequisites
You will need API documentation for the API table that you select.
Depending on your API table, you may need to know the thermal expansion coefficient
(TEC) for your process fluid.
You must know the reference temperature and reference pressure that you want to use.
Procedure
1. Choose Device Tools > Configuration > Process Measurement > Petroleum Measurement.
2. Specify the API table to use.
Each API table is associated with a specific set of equations.
a. Set Process Fluid to the API table group that your process fluid belongs to.
API table group Process fluids
A tables Generalized crude and JP4
B tables Generalized products: Gasoline, jet fuel, aviation fuel, kerosene,
heating oils, fuel oils, diesel, gas oil
