Installation of RFV
Note the following information when mounting and handling an RFV
sensor:
1. Always insert the flexible sensor rod in a support tube (e.g.
pressure rod HD/HL/HP or HFP profile). The support tube has
to be made of non-magnetic material and has to have an inside
diameter of minimum 9.4 mm (0.37 in.) (Fig. 14). The support
tube can be straight or bent.
2. Do never bend beyond the minimum bending radius of 250 mm
(9.84 in.).
3. Note the minimum distance to a spatial limitation of 300 mm
(11.81 in.), when mounting/dismounting the sensor. The
recommended distance is 500 mm (20 in.) (Fig. 15).
4. Note the non-flexible area of the sensor rod from the flange of
107 mm (4.21 in.) (for RFV-B) respectively 97 mm (3.82 in.) (for
RFV-M/-S).
NOTICE
Smaller radiuses < 250 mm (9.84 in.) cause damage to the flexible
sensor rod.
