Mounting Conditions
CAUTION
• When installing probes, do not bend rigid probes,
permanent damage may result.
Flexible PVDF probes are intended for coiling into
a 40" (1m) loop. Bending beyond that diameter or
repeated bending can cause permanent damage. Do
NOT unwind until actually feeding into vessel!
Longer rigid probes need to be supported at both ends
while handling.
Probes are sealed at the factory and have electronic
circuits inside. Do not attempt to open probe or weld
the tube.
• DM330 Series level system is designed for industrial
applications, but should be mounted in a location as free
as possible from vibration, corrosive atmospheres, or any
possibility of mechanical damage.
• Place the level gauge in a reasonably accessible location.
Ambient temperature should be between -20°F and 158°F
(-4°C to 70°C).
• Mount the probe perpendicular with gravity. See Figure
2-1.
• Float should have free movement along probe. Float
dimensions are shown in Section 1.5.
• Float Retention Clip should be in place at base of probe.
