With powder level detection, the device should be installed at an inclination exceeding the angle of
repose (or vertically in case of high level detection), to prevent powder deposition on the vibrating rod
that might substantially reduce the self-cleaning effect. Avoid mounting the rod in a recess (
Figure 1-3
)
Figure 1-3. Avoid Mounting Rod in Recess
In the case of tanks that are likely to be exposed to intense vibrations, necessary provisions shall be made
for damping the vibrations acting on the device (e.g. vibration damping inserts made of rubber have to
be applied).
