  • Page 14: Mounting

    Use the recommended cable (see chapter "Connecting Moisture to power supply") and tighten the cable entry. You can give your VEGAPULS 62 additional protection against moisture penetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of the cable entry. Rain and condensation water can thus drain off.

    4.2 Mounting preparations, horn antenna Information: This information applies only to special versions! VEGAPULS 62 is available in versions where the antenna has a bigger diameter than the process fitting (thread/flange). Therefore the antenna must be dis- mounted on the process fitting before mounting.

  • Page 18 Mounting When mounting VEGAPULS 62, keep a distance of at Installation location least 200 mm (7.9 in) to the vessel wall. If the sensor is installed in the center of concave or arched vessel tops, multiple echoes can arise. These can, however, be faded out by an appropriate adjustment (see Setup).
  • Page 19 Make sure that you detect the product surface and not the inflowing product. Fig. 8: Inflowing liquid Preferably socket pieces should be dimensioned such Socket that the antenna end protrudes at least 10 mm (0.4 in) out of the socket. VEGAPULS 62 - 4 ... 20 mA/HART...
  • Page 20 Fig. 9: Recommended socket mounting If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount VEGAPULS 62 on socket pieces higher than the antenna length. You will find recommended values of the socket heights in the following illustration. The socket end should be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded.
