During work on and with the device, the required personal protective equipment must always be worn. Appropriate use LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8139 is a sensor for continuous level meas- urement. You can find detailed information about the area of application in chapter "Product description". Operational reliability is ensured only if the instrument is properly used according to the specifications in the operating instructions manual as well as possible supplementary instructions.

(see chapter "Setup"). If you cannot maintain this distance, you should carry out a false signal suppression during setup. This applies particularly if buildup on the vessel wall is expected. In such cases, we recommend repeating the false signal suppression at a later date with existing buildup. LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8139 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire...

In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the sensor in the centre of the vessel, as measurement is then possible down to the bottom. Fig. 7: Mounting of the radar sensor on vessels with conical bottom LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8139 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire...
6. Insert the wire ends into the terminals according to the wiring plan Information: Solid cores as well as flexible cores with wire end sleeves are insert- ed directly into the terminal openings. In case of flexible cores without end sleeves, press the terminal from above with a small screwdriver, the terminal opening is then free. When the screwdriver is released, the terminal closes again.
