VEGA VEGASWING 51 - contactless electronic switch - Manual (Page 13)

In case of horizontal mounting in adhesive and viscous products, the
surfaces of the tuning fork should be vertical in order to reduce buildup
on the tuning fork. The position of the tuning fork is indicated by a
marking on the hexagon of VEGASWING 51. With this, you can check
the position of the tuning fork when screwing it in. When the hexagon
touches the seal, the thread can still be turned by approx. half a turn.
This is sufficient to reach the recommended installation position.
In adhesive and viscous products, the surfaces of the tuning fork
should protrude into the vessel to avoid buildup. Therefore sockets for
flanges and mountings bosses should not exceed a certain length.

If VEGASWING 51 is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false
measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount
VEGASWING
51 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.
g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur.
To minimise flow resistance caused by the tuning fork, VEGASWING
51 should be mounted in such a way that the surfaces of the blades
are parallel to the product movement.
