Threaded process connections
The simplest and most economic way is to mount the level meter directly onto the tank with a GAS or NPT-
threaded connection.
Use a 50 mm or 2" open-end wrench or similar to screw the device onto the tank process fitting.
Nozzles
Nozzle height
Recommendation (especially for single probes and powder applications):
Do not fit a nozzle longer than its diameter.
Nozzles extending into the tank
Do not use nozzles that extend into the tank!
This will create disturbances - especially for single probes!
where h = nozzle height and
d = nozzle diameter
Contact KROHNE for assistance if
this relationship cannot be
respected.
False readings
Do not let the probe touch the side of the nozzle. This will give a false reading.
