Mounting
•
Mount the transducer so that it is above the maximum material level by at least the
blanking value. Refer to the associated controller manual.
•
For liquid applications, the transducer must be mounted so that the axis of transmission is
perpendicular to the liquid surface.
•
For solids applications, use a Siemens Milltronics Easy Aimer to aim the transducer.
•
Where the transducer is mounted to a standpipe, the inner standpipe surface and end
must be smooth and free of burrs, ridges, and seams.
•
Consider the optional temperature sensor when mounting the transducer.
•
Do not overtighten mounting. Hand tightening of the mounting hardware is sufficient.
•
Do not mount the transducer directly to metal. Use a PVC coupling and nipple for isolation
(customer supplied).
Mounting – Solids Applications
Non-Corrosive Applications
In solids applications, mount the transducer so that it is aimed toward the low level draw point. Use
the optional Siemens Milltronics Easy Aimer to facilitate this mounting.
