4.4 Instructions for installation
For tight installation of the version with plastic horn antenna with com-
pression or adapter flange, the following conditions must be fulfilled:
1. Use suitable flat seal, e.g. of EPDM with Shore hardness 25 or 50
2. Make sure the number of flange screws corresponds to the num-
ber of flange holes
3. Tighten all screws with the torque stated in the technical data
The emitted radar impulses of the radar sensor are electromagnetic
waves. The polarisation plane is the direction of the electrical wave
component. By turning the instrument in the connection flange or
mounting boss, the polarisation can be used to reduce the effects of
false echoes.
The position of the polarisation plane is marked on the process fitting
of the instrument.
