wall to propagate enough microwaves.
(3) +/- 1deg horizontal balance: Please keep less than 1 deg against nozzle flange surface to get better
signal strength to liquid surface.
(4) For rod antenna and PTFE sealing antenna, it must be used flange (optional), seal gasket (out of

Also when mounting the
flange, please tighten depending on the size of the bolt properly .
