may

 

be

 

installed

 

through

 

the

 

top,

 

side

 

or

 

bottom

 

of

 

a

has

 

male

 

3/4"

 

NPT

threads

 

on

 

either

 

side

 

of

 

a

 

15/16"

 

wrench

 

flat.

   

This

 

enables

 

the

 

user

 

to

 

select

 

the

 

sensor’s

 

mounting

 

orientation,

 

installed

 

outside

 

of

 

the

to

 

install

 

up

 

to

 

four

 

OMEGA

of

 

any

 

technology,

 

to

 

any

 

depth,

 

along

 

the

 

entire

 

length

 

of

 

track.

  

The

 

LVM

series

 

may

 

be

 

installed

 

through

 

the

 

top

 

wall

 

of

 

any

using

 

a

 

standard

 

2"

may

 

be

 

installed

 

onto

 

the

at

 

the
