In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the
device in the centre of the vessel, as measurement is then possible
down to the bottom.

Mount the instrument at least 200 mm (7.874 in) away from the vessel
wall.

Note:
If you cannot maintain this distance, you should carry out a false
signal suppression during setup. This applies especially if buildup on
the vessel wall is to be expected.

In this case, it is recommended to repeat the false signal suppression at a
later time with existing buildup.
