Chapter 2: Installation and Removal Procedures and Notes
Tools are not necessary for installing the LPU itself. If you are using a stand pipe to mount your LPU, you will
probably need tools to install the stand pipe, but not for the LPU.
• Tools Needed
• Installation Notes
•
Mount your LPU sensor so that it has a clear, perpendicular sound path to the surface being moni-
tored. Your sensor should be mounted away from tank or vessel walls and inlets. See Figure 2.1.
•
The sound path should be free from obstructions and as open as possible for the 9° off axis beam
pattern.
•
If you are using a stand pipe, please see our guide to stand pipes on our website:

.

NOTE
: Do not mount the sensor where the beam will intersect objects such as fill
streams, pipes, ladder rungs, wall seams, or corrugated tank walls.
