  • Page 8: Mounting

    Mounting bracket For a rigid mounting, a mounting bracket with opening for thread G1½, e.g. from the VEGA product range, is recommended. The mounting of the sensor in the bracket is carried out via a G1½ counter nut of plastic. Take note of chapter "Mounting instructions" for the distance to the wall.
  • Page 9 The instrument is normally mounted with a strap vertically on the mounting ceiling. This ensures swivelling of the sensor up to 180° for optimum orienta- tion. Fig. 4: Ceiling mounting via the mounting strap with length 300 mm VEGAPULS WL 61 • 4 … 20 mA/HART two-wire...
  • Page 10 Fig. 7: Wall mounting with inclined wall via the mounting strap with length 300 mm Flange mounting For mounting the instrument on a socket or a manhole cover, an unassembled combi collar flange for DN 80 (ASME 3" or JIS 80) is optionally available also as retrofitting part.

  • Page 11: Mounting Preparations, Mounting Strap

    The optional mounting strap is supplied unassembled. It must be screwed to the sensor before setup with the attached screws. Max. torque, see chapter "Technical data". Required tools: Allen wrench size 4. There are two different variants of screwing the strap to the sensor. Depending on the selected variant, the sensor can be rotated in the strap infinitely variable through 180° or in three steps 0°, 90° and 180°. VEGAPULS WL 61 • 4 … 20 mA/HART two-wire...
