•
Fig. installation on a tank: Possible installation positions in a tank (e.g. for point level detection or
as run-dry protection).
•
Fig. installation on a pipe: Fill level monitoring in pipes.
With highly adhesive and viscous media and media prone to sedimentation or build-up the
installation positions (1) are only suitable to some extent. Residues might be detected as level.
5.2.2 Unit types with long probe

Maximum level
Fig. installation from the top: For monitoring the maximum level (A) or as
overflow prevention. Different probe lengths enable different response
levels.
Lateral installation:

Fig. lateral installation: Since the probe tip is installed further into the
tank, very adhesive and viscous residues can be suppressed.
