Mounting

Mounting: flush and non-flush mountable

Mounting / detectable
material
For flush mounting in metal or other materials. These sensors can be mounted close
together (see Fig. 1 and 3) and are specially designed for contact-less detection of solids or
liquids through non-metal containers (max. wall-thickness 4 mm)
For non-flush mounting in metal or other materials. When mounting two or more sensors
side by side a space / free zone must be provided (see Fig. 2 and 4). These sensors are de-
signed for applications where the material to be detected comes into contact with the active
area of the sensor (e.g. level monitoring of bulk materials or liquids).
Fig. 3 Flush mountable
Two opposite sensors have to be mounted with a distance of at least 2.2 times the operating
i
distance (distance "a").
For non-flush mountable sensors, the zone without a thread has to be mounted with a distance
of at least 1.5 times the operating distance from the damping material (distance "b").
