OPTISOUND 3010 C • Four-wire 4 … 20 mA/HART
30504-EN-220310
4.2 Mounting instructions
Screw OPTISOUND 3010 C into the mounting socket with an ap-
propriate spanner applied to the hexagon of the process fitting. Max.
torque see chapter "
Technical data
".
Warning:
The housing must not be used to screw the instrument in! Applying
tightening force can damage internal parts of the housing.
When mounting the sensor, keep a distance of at least 200 mm
(7.874 in) to the vessel wall. If the sensor is installed in the center of
dished or round vessel tops, multiple echoes can arise. These can,
however, be suppressed by an appropriate adjustment (see chapter
"
Setup
").

If this distance cannot be maintained, a false signal suppression
should be carried out during setup. This applies particularly if buildup
on the vessel wall is expected. In such cases, we recommend repeat-
ing the false signal suppression at a later date with existing buildup.
In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the
sensor in the centre of the vessel, as measurement is then possible
down to the bottom.
