The glue surface bonds adhesively to the surface of the IBC container
and reaches its final adhesive strength after approx. 72 hours. A cor
-
rection of the sensor position is no longer possible once the adhesive
tape has been pressed.
Note:
The adhesive strength is considerably reduced after removal. If the
sensor position is subsequently changed, a new adhesive tape must
be applied. Please contact your contact person at VEGA.
Danger:
Reattaching the sensor with adhesive tape that is not as good as
new means a risk of uncontrolled detachment of the device. This can
endanger or damage persons or property (especially during vessel
transport). Therefore, only use new adhesive tape.
The device version with flexibly exchangeable holder is attached to
the vessel via the tension belt.
To prevent the device from slipping out of its mounting position, it has
a foam pad on the bottom side.
For mounting proceed as follows:
