Mounting and installation - Measurement in standpipe

As an alternative to the surge pipe in the
vessel, a pipe antenna outside the vessel is
possible as bypass pipe. Direct the sensor
such that the type plate is in one axis with the
pipe holes or the pipe connection openings.
The polarization of the radar signals enables
considerably more stable measurements with
this directing.
Note that with a measurement in the surge or
bypass pipe the max. measuring range is
reduced by 5 … 20 % (e.g. DN 50: 16 m
instead of 20 m and DN 100 only 19 m
instead of 20 m).

Adhesive products

When measuring adhesive products, the
inner diameter of the surge pipe must have a
larger nominal width so that build-up does
not cause measuring errors. Surge pipe
diameters of DN 50 to DN 150 can be
connected.
