5.1 Installation conditions
►
Install the unit so that the medium to be detected is within a measuring range of
20�0���1000�0 cm�
The unambiguity range of the sensor is fixed to 100 m� Levels within a range
> 10…100 m are suppressed�
Reflecting surfaces in the direct beam path of the sensor – also in the
range > 100 m – are to be avoided by the customer� Otherwise the meas-
ured value may be ambiguous�
5.2 Location
►
Mount the sensor in a way that a distance (D) of min� 20�0 cm remains between
the highest possible level and the front lens of the sensor�
►
The maximum measuring distance (H) between the front lens of the sensor and
the tank bottom or the programmed level is 10 m� A reference height at a longer
distance cannot be set�
D = min� measuring distance / dead zone
H = max� measuring distance
