Page 18: Probe Handling
Probe Handling It is important to handle the Mag-FLEX probe with care at all times during the installation. Avoid excessive bending of the probe especially at the points the ridged sections meet with the flexible shaft. Below you can see examples of mishandling that would cause irreversible damage to the probe and invalidate the terms of warranty. -
Page 19: System Safety Layout
Installer’s responsibility to ensure that the installation complies with all relevant local and national legislation and codes of practice. Do not run the Mag-FLEX probe cable from the tank to the TLS Console in the same cable duct as non-intrinsically safe wiring. -
Page 20: Mag-Flex Installation & Handling Procedures
Installation requires a minimum of two people to allow correct handling of the probe. Please note that the flexible and therefore fragile nature of the Mag-FLEX probe makes it more prone to mechanical shock. The probe must not be unpacked until it has been brought to its place of installation and where possible unpacked at the Tank top. The probe corrugated shaft is supplied in a 1 meter diameter coil this coil MUST not be reduced in size. -
