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.

  • Page 14: Mounting Instructions

    Mounting instructions Welded socket VEGASWING 63 has a defined thread starting point. This means that every VEGASWING 63 is in the same fork position after being screwed in. Remove therefore the supplied seal from the thread of VEGASWING 63. This seal is not required when using a welded socket with O-ring in front.
  • Page 15 VEGASWING 63 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. This applies particularly to instrument types with long extension tube. Fig. 8: Inflowing medium Product flow To make sure the tuning fork of VEGASWING 63 generates as little resistance as possible to product flow, mount the sensor so that the surfaces are parallel to the product movement. VEGASWING 63 • Contactless electronic switch...
  • Page 16 4 Mounting Due to the effects of agitators, equipment vibration or similar, the level Agitators switch can be subjected to strong lateral forces. For this reason, do not use an overly long extension tube for VEGASWING 63, but check if you can mount a level switch on the side of the vessel in horizontal position. Extreme vibration caused by the process or the equipment, e.g.
