5 x 10 and spring washers before setup. Max. torque see chapter
"T echnical data". Necessary tools: Allen wrench size 4.
Screwing on is possible in two ways. Depending on the selected
version, the sensors can be swivelled in the strap as follows:
l Single chamber housing
-
180° infinitely variable
-
in three steps 0°, 90° and 180°
l Double chamber housing
-
90° infinitely variable
-
in two steps 0° and 90°
4 .3 Mounting instructions
When mounting the sensor, keep a distance of at least 200 mm
(7.874 in) from the vessel wall. If the sensor is installed in the center of
dished or round vessel tops, multiple echoes can arise. These can,
however, be suppressed by an appropriate adjustment (see chapter
"S
etup").
If you cannot keep this distance you should carry out a false echo
storage before setup. This applies mainly if buildup on the vessel wall
is expected. In this case, we recommend repeating a false echo
storage later with existing buildup.
