Customers can create their specific level measurement solution via an extensive tool box on the elobau website – the online configurator.

The shortest way to the appropriate level indicator is via http://www.elobau.com/konfigurator/update2008/en/index.php4. Using the new elobau online configurator, customers can enter their specific requirements in 17 steps. The software determines the customised solution from a total of more than 1.5 million possibilities.

It sounds complicated, but it is very user friendly. In the earlly steps, the basic data is gathered: Which medium should be measured? Which density, which temperatures have to be considered? In addition, information regarding operating voltage, current, etc. have to be entered. Step by step other requirements – e.g. the required switching points, the fitting position or connection type – are determined, until the system suggests the most suitable level indicator in the end.

In order to give targeted advice to the user, elobau provides important explanations to each question which will make the answer and decision easier. If individual framework parameters are not known and they are not compulsive for the selection of the individual components, they may be skipped. However, complete information will significantly speed up the quotation procedure. The user can always move back one or more steps in the selection, check answers or change them. If the user cannot complete all questions, the query may still be sent. In this way, the elobau specialists already have the basic information available and the further consultation can be targeted to the requirements.

The process chain from request to delivery is sped up immensely thanks to the elobau online configurator, the new manufacturing in production cells and the complete electronic procedure. For small order amounts, the customer can receive the individual level indicator within five working days
