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 with hygienic

fittings, e.g. Neumo Biocontrol.

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 echo storage.
