Nozzle Requirements
When using a Ø 20" nozzle the height of the nozzle must not exceed 0.5
meter. There has to be a free passage for the radar beam within a 5° angle
from the edge of the parabolic reflector to the lower end of the nozzle.
Nozzles with larger diameter may be higher than 0.5 meter as long as the 5°
requirement is fulfilled.
From the flange to the product surface the distance should not be less than
1.0 m. Highest accuracy is obtained from product levels 1.0 meter below the
flange downwards
