Page 11: Incorrect Installation
Instruction Manual Tek-Wave 4300C Technology Solutions • When there is a material pile, the antenna must be vertically aligned with the material surface. • If the material surface is uneven, the angle of the horn must be adjusted by the universal flange to align the horn with the material surface as much as possible (because the inclined solid surface may cause echo attenuation or even signal loss). - Page 12 Instruction Manual Tek-Wave 4300C Technology Solutions • Indirect echo will be affected by multiple echoes. • Multiple echoes may have a larger signal threshold than real echoes because multiple echoes can be concentrated through the top. Therefore, it cannot be installed in the center position. Fig 11: Installation at Round Tank •...
