Page 10: Mounting
Mounting instructions Inflowing medium If EL 9 is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount EL 9 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. This applies particularly to instrument versions with a longer probe. - Page 11 Use conductive seals, such as those made of copper or lead, etc. Insulating measures, such as covering the thread with Teflon tape, can interrupt the necessary electrical connection with metal vessels. For this reason, ground the probe on the vessel or use a conductive seal material. Conductive probe EL 9 •...
