1 Energy field
2 Container frame
3 Heating coil
4 Pump
High frequency microwave pulses are guided along a steel cable or
rod.
The microwave pulses generate an energy field with a radius of ap
-
proximately 300
mm (11.81
in) around the sensor cable.
Installations within this energy field influence the measurement.
Process fitting
If possible, avoid vessel sockets. Mount the sensor flush to the vessel
ceiling.
If this is not possible, use short sockets with small diameter.
