4.2 Mounting instructions

OPTISWITCH 5200 C, 5250 C has a defined thread starting

point. This means that every OPTISWITCH 5200 C, 5250 C is

in the same fork position after being screwed in. Remove

therefore the supplied seal from the thread of OPTISWITCH

5200 C, 5250 C. This seal is not required when using a welded

socket with O-ring in front.
Keep in mind that this welded socket is not suitable for coated

instrument versions.
Screw OPTISWITCH 5200 C, 5250 C completely into the

welded socket. The later position can be determined already

before welding. Mark the appropriate position of the welded

socket. Before welding, unscrew OPTISWITCH 5200 C, 5250

C and remove the rubber ring from the welded socket. The

welded socket has a marking (notch). Weld the socket with the

notch facing upward, or in case of pipelines, aligned with the

direction of flow.

Marking

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. On the screwed

version you will find a marking on the hexagon. 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.
With flange versions, the fork is directed to the flange holes.
