It comes not sealed against the radar sensor and can thus only be used unpressurized. It can be retrofitted on instruments with single chamber housing, retrofitting to a double chamber housing is not possible. VEGAPULS 69 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire...

  • Page 21 Inflowing medium The instrument should not be mounted too close to the inflowing medium, as the radar signal could be disrupted. Silo with filling from top The optimal mounting position is opposite the filling aperture. To avoid heavy soiling, the distance to any filter or dust exhauster should be as large as possible. Fig. 11: Mounting of the radar sensor with inflowing medium Silo with lateral filling In bulk solids silos with lateral pneumatic filling the instrument should not be mounted above the filling stream, as the radar signal will be disrupted. The optimal mounting position is to the side of the filling aperture. To avoid heavy soiling, the distance to any filter or dust exhauster should be as large as possible.

  • Page 22 This reduces false echoes from the vessel mounting socket. Fig. 13: Recommended socket mounting If the medium has good reflective properties, you can also mount the VEGAPULS 69 on longer sockets. Approximate socket heights are shown in the following illustration. Note: When mounting on longer sockets, we recommend carrying out a false signal suppression (see chapter "Parameter adjustment").
  • Page 23 5 mm (0.2 in) out of the socket. Fig. 15: Recommended socket mounting If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount VEGAPULS 69 on sockets longer than the antenna. The socket end should be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded. Note: When mounting on longer sockets, we recommend carrying out a false signal suppression (see chapter "Parameter adjustment").

  • Page 27 4 Mounting Fig. 20: VEGAPULS 69 with swivelling holder on tall, slender sockets Vessel installations The mounting location of the radar sensor should be a place where no other equipment or fixtures cross the path of the radar signals. Vessel installations, such as e.g. ladders, limit switches, heating spi- rals, struts, etc., can cause false echoes and impair the useful echo.
  • Page 28 Mounting in multiple The walls of multiple-chamber silos are often made of profile material, chamber silo e.g. profile sheeting, to ensure the required stability. If the radar sen- sor is mounted very close to a heavily structured vessel wall, substan- tial interfering reflections can be generated. Thus the sensor should be mounted at the largest possible distance from the separating wall. VEGAPULS 69 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire...
