General notes
Filling the silo
The filling stream should not be
directed onto the probe.
Angle of material flow
Note the expected angle of the
material flow or of the outlet
funnel when determining the
mounting location or probe
length.
Distance between probes
When installing several probes in
a silo, a minimum distance of
0.5 m between the probes must
be observed.
Threaded coupling for
mounting
When installing the Solicap
M FTI55, FTI56, the threaded
coupling should be as short as
possible.
Condensation or product residue
may occur in a long threaded
coupling and interfere with the
correct operation of the probe.
Heat insulation
In the event of high temperatures
in the silo:
Insulate the external silo wall to
avoid exceeding the permitted
temperature of the Solicap M
housing.
Heat insulation also prevents
condensation from forming near
the threaded boss in the silo.
This reduces buildup and the risk
of error switching.
