Mounting of the sensors 

 

M-Sens 2 is

 

designed for continuous moisture measurement. Most important condition for 

correct measurement is the right choice of the mounting place of the sensor. That is, when 
using chutes or conveyor belts, it is very important to have a almost even material height in 
front of the sensor window. 
 
The flange is welded without sensor and dummy plate in the opening at determined mounting 
place. Sensor and dummy plate are mounting by means of plumbing lubricant. For applica-
tions without over-pressure it is possible to renounce the 2 sealing rings. 
 

     Attention! 

   The Flange mustn’t be welded together with the sensor or dummy plate (incl. the seal-
ing 
      rings).
