Threaded adapters enable simple adaptation of devices with stand- ard threaded fittings, e.g. to process-side hygiene connections. Mounting accessories The mounting accessories are used for stable mounting of the device at the measuring point. The parts are available in various versions and sizes. VEGAPULS C 22 • SDI-12... -
Page 11: Mounting
Mounting bracket For the wall mounting, a mounting bracket with opening for thread G1½, e.g. from the VEGA product range, is recommended. The mounting of the device in the bracket is carried out via a G1½ counter nut of plastic. Take note of chapter " Mounting instructions" for the recommended distance to the wall. -

Fig. 10: Recommended threaded socket mounting of VEGAPULS C 22 If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount VEGAPULS C 22 on sockets longer than the antenna. The socket end should be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded. Note: When mounting on longer nozzles, we recommend carrying out a false signal suppression (see chapter "...
- Page 14 Fig. 13: Alignment in liquids Agitators If there are agitators in the vessel, a false signal suppression should be carried out with the agitators in motion. This ensures that the interfering reflections from the agitators are saved with the blades in different positions. VEGAPULS C 22 • SDI-12...
