Fig. 13: VEGAPULS 63 in a bypass tube. The polarisation marking on the
process fitting must be in one plane with the tube holes or the tube connection
openings.

Marking of the polarisation direction
When the sensor is mounted on a bypass tube, the distance from VE-
GAPULS 63 to the upper tube connection should be approx. 300 mm
(11.81 in) or more. In case of extremely rough tube inner walls, you
should use an inserted tube (tube in tube) or a radar sensor with tube
antenna.
Information:
With VEGAPULS 63 in flange version, the polarisation plane is always
in the center between two flange holes.

bypass tube. The sensor housing is not shown.
