  • Page 10: Mounting

    Mounting 4 Mounting 4.1 Mounting instructions In principle, VEGASWING 51 can be mounted in any position. The instrument must be mounted such that the tuning fork is at the height of the required switch- ing point. Transport Do not hold VEGASWING 51 on the tuning fork.
  • Page 11 The orientation of the tuning fork is marked by a notch on the hexagon of VEGASWING 51. With this you can check the position of the tuning fork when screwing it in.
  • Page 12 Make sure that the tuning fork is not subjected to Lateral load strong lateral forces. To assure this, mount VEGASWING 51 at a location in the vessel where no adverse conditions, e.g. caused by stirrers, filling openings etc. can occur. The surfaces of the tuning fork of VEGASWING 51 should be parallel to the product movement/flow.
