If a swivel mounting is used, you should note that the distance between the antenna and the socket is reduced
by angling the sensor. This may create additional interference reflection which may adversely affect the
measurement result for short distances.
If the solids have good reflective properties you can also install the Nico 30 with a horn antenna on longer
pipe sockets. Guide values for socket heights are shown in the figure below.
After this you must also save the interference signal.
