Figure 3-6. Mounting Position

When finding an appropriate mounting position for the transmitter the conditions of the tank must be carefully considered. The transmitter should be mounted so that the influence of disturbing objects is reduced to a minimum.

In case of turbulence the probe may need to be anchored to the bottom, see
“Mechanical#￿￿￿￿￿￿￿￿￿Installation“ on page 3-11for more information.

The following guidelines should be considered when mounting the transmitter:

•Do not mount close to inlet pipes.

•Do not mount close to agitators. If the probe can move within 30 cm away from an agitator a probe tie-down is recommended.

•If the the probe tends to sway due to turbulent conditions in the tank, fasten the probe to the tank bottom.

•Avoid mounting close to heating coils.

•Make sure that the nozzle does not extend into the tank.

•Make sure that the probe does not come into contact with the nozzle or other objects in the tank.

•Position the probe such that it is subject to a minimum of lateral force.
