PTU50-51-56 - dimensions 4-DIMENSIONS MECHANICAL DIMENSIONS The PTU50, PTU51 and PTU56 transmitter have the 1“ GAS M threaded, equipped with 1” PP fi xing bolt. Also available with: PTU50-51 - DN100 PN6 UNI 1092-1/PP fl ange (optional accessory) PTU56 - DN125 PN6 UNI 1092-1/PP fl ange (optional accessory)
During installation is important to remember that in the sensor vicinity there is a blind zone (or BLIND DISTANCE) of 0.05m (for 1.5m max PTU50 range), 0.3m (for 6m max PTU51 range) or 0.5m (for 12m max PTU56 range) where the sensor can not measure.

- presence on the liquid surface of fl oating bodies can be avoided with the use of level measurement inside of pipes (by-pass pipe or calm pipe with 100mm min. diameter for PTU50-51, or 125mm min. diameter for PTU56) The pipe must have a length greater or equal than the empty distance, also, must have some of vent holes to allow the pipe regular fi...
