Installation
This section describes how to install the level sensor depending on the type of the device
(see the following figures).
When installing and maintaining the level sensor in potentially explosive areas,
the national rules must be observed (Explosion Protection Regulations, Indus-
trial Health and Safety Regulations, Equipment Safety Regulations and specific
conditions of the EU-Type Examination Certificates). The generally accepted
rules of engineering and these operating instructions must be observed.
This also applies to any local safety and accident prevention regulations which
are not stated in this manual.
During installation, take great care not to bend the probe tube, and protect the
float from shock and impact loads.
Installing a level sensor in areas exposed to a powerful external magnetic field
is not permitted because this could impair gauging.
The level sensor can also be fitted into containers from underneath.
If the container additionally is pressurized, then the maximum length of the level
sensor is 2 m.
If the float was removed during installation, it must be slid back onto the probe
tube afterwards with the “TOP” marking oriented towards the probe head to
enable correct measurements.
