3. MOUNTING 

It is advised to check if the device is working properly on a sample quantity of material before installing the device. 

WARNING! 

• Handle the device with great care, with special attention to the probe. Any strong impact or bending to the probe may damage the device. 

• 

A protective shield must be installed (see the figure) if the probe is exposed to falling material or excessive mechanical load. 

• 

For tanks where strong vibration may occur, use the vibration-resistant version with the solid-state switch 

(see sections 2.4 and 2.5!)

• 

The device is rated IP67 - in the case of liquids, only the lower metal part of the probe may touch the liquid continuously! 

Screw in the device by its hexagonal neck. After screwing process connection in tightly, the housing can be rotated (max. 300°), to adjust the cable gland to the required position.

 

It might become necessary to install the device at an offset level position relative 
to the switching level taking the coning and caving of the material in the silo into 
account.

 

 

 

 

High level indication 

Low level indication

 

 

In the case of powders, the angle of the side-mounted device's probe must be greater than 
that of the coning of the medium (or, in the case of high-level detection, vertical) to prevent 
powder deposition on the probe that might cause false switching. Avoid mounting the unit 
near recesses any surface that facilitates forming deposits.
