    DIN/EN/IEC/ANSI/ISA/UL/CSA 61010-1. Switching point In general, OPTISWITCH 5300 C can be installed in any position. The instrument only has to be mounted in such a way that the tuning fork is at the height of the desired switching point.
  • Page 12 (e.g. through cleaning processes) or on cooled or heated vessels. To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is closed during operation and locked, if necessary. Make sure that the degree of contamination specified in chapter "Technical data" meets the existing ambient conditions. OPTISWITCH 5300 C • Relay...

  • Page 13: Mounting Instructions

    4 Mounting Fig. 7: Measures against moisture ingress Caution: Transport Do not hold OPTISWITCH 5300 C on the tuning fork. Particularly with flange or tube versions, the tuning fork can be damaged just by the weight of the instrument. Transport coated instruments very carefully and avoid touching the tuning fork. Remove the packaging or the protective cover just before mounting.
  • Page 14 (1.16 in). To mount the sensor, proceed as follows: 1. Screw the OPTISWITCH 5300 C into the mounting boss up to the stop. You can determine the later position already before welding. 2. Mark the position of the OPTISWITCH 5300 C on the mounting boss.
  • Page 15 Ambient temperature on the housing Inflowing medium If OPTISWITCH 5300 C is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount OPTISWITCH 5300 C at a position in the vessel where no distur- bances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. This applies particularly to instrument types with long extension tube. Fig. 9: Inflowing medium...
  • Page 16 Extreme vibration caused by the process or the equipment, e.g. agitators or turbulence in the vessel, can cause a long extension tube of OPTISWITCH 5300 C to vibrate in resonance. This leads to increased stress on the upper weld joint. Should a longer tube version be necessary, you can provide a suitable support directly above the tuning fork to secure the extension tube.
