Step 5: Installation of the transducers in the mounting fixture Variofix L
• Press the transducers firmly into their clamping fixtures in the covers until they are tightly fixed (see Fig. 6.25). Observe
the correct orientation of the transducers. Emitter and receiver are mounted on opposite sides of the pipe.
• Adjust the transducer distance for transducer pair A displayed by the transmitter.
• Now position the transducers of measuring barrier B at the distance displayed by the transmitter (see Fig. 6.26).
• Check whether the transducer distance of transducer pair B corresponds to the value displayed by the transmitter.
• Fix the transducer cables with the strain relief clamp to protect them from mechanical strain, see Fig. 6.26.
• Put coupling foil (or apply some coupling compound for a short-term installation) on the contact surface of the
transducers. The coupling foil can be fixed to the contact surface with some coupling compound.
• Put the covers with the transducers on the rails.
• Correct the distance between the measuring barriers, if necessary. The distance has to be adjusted with an accuracy of
1 mm.

Notice!
The arrows on the transducers and the covers have to point in the same direction.
