The separating walls in multi-chamber silos are often constructed
from trapezoidal sheets to ensure the required stability.
Note:
If the radar sensor is mounted too close to such a separating wall,
»ÇÆËÁ¼½Ê¹ºÄ½ÁÆ̽ʾ½ÊÁƿʽŴ½»ÌÁÇÆËŹÑÇ»»ÍÊƖǹÎÇÁ¼ÌÀÁËƓÌÀ½
sensor should be installed at the greatest possible distance from the
separating walls.
The optimal installation of the device is therefore on the outer wall of
the silo. The sensor should be directed towards the emptying point in
the centre of the silo. This can be done, for example, using the mount-
ing strap.
