Notes on special installation situations

Installation at an angle

• For mechanical reasons, the probe should be

installed as vertically as possible.

• With inclined installations the probe length

has to be adjusted in dependence to the

installation angle.

– up to 1 m = 30°

– up to 2 m = 10°

– up to 4 m = 5°.

Installation in plastic containers

Please note that the "guided level radar" measuring principle requires a metallic surface at the

process connection! When installing rod or robe probes in plastic silos, whose silo cover is also made

of plastic or silos with wood cover, the probes must either be mounted in a ≥ DN50 (2") metallic

flange, or a metal sheet with diameter of ≥ 200 mm must be mounted under the screw-in piece.
