Coaxial probe.

The Coaxial probe can be guided by a tube welded on the tank bottom. Tubes are customer supplied. Make sure that the probe can move freely in order to handle thermal expansion.

Rigid Twin Lead probe.

The Rigid Twin Lead probe can be secured to the tank wall by cutting the center rod and putting a fixture at the end of the outer rod.

The fixture is customer supplied. Make sure the probe is only guided and not fastened in the fixture to be able to move freely for thermal expansion.

Flexible Single Lead probe.

The probe rope itself can be used for anchoring. Pull the probe rope through a suitable anchoring point, e.g. a welded eye and fasten it with two clamps.

The length of the loop will add to the transition zone.The location of the clamps will determine the beginning of the transition zone. The probe length should be configured as the length from the underside of the flange to the top clamp. See section “Transition Zones“ on page 2-10for further information on Transition Zones.
