4 Mounting
VEGAPULS 69 • Modbus and Levelmaster protocol
47252-EN-210205
If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount
VEGAPULS 69 on sockets longer than the antenna. The socket end
should be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded.
Note:
When mounting on longer nozzles, we recommend carrying out a
false signal suppression (see chapter "
Parameter adjustment
").
You will find recommended values for socket heights in the following
illustration or the tables. The values come from typical applications.
Deviating from the proposed dimensions, also longer sockets are
possible, however the local conditions must be taken into account.
