Flush mounting
The best way to mount the sensor, also with respect to cleanability,
is flush on a block flange (flange without socket piece) or through a
hygienic fitting.
Mounting on socket
If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount
VEGAPULS 63 on a socket piece. You will find recommended values
for socket heights in the following illustration. The socket end should
be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded. Then carry out a
false signal suppression.
