The mounting location of the radar sensor should be a place where no
other equipment or fixtures cross the path of the microwave signals.

Vessel installations, such as e.g. ladders, limit switches, heating
spirals, struts, etc., can cause false echoes and impair the useful echo.
Make sure when planning your measuring site that the radar sensor
has a "clear view" to the measured product.

In case of existing vessel installations, a false echo storage should be
carried out during setup.
