• Select the mounting location such that
the distance to internals (5) (e.g. limit
switch, struts) > is 300 mm over the
entire length of the probe, also during
operation.
• Probe must within the measuring span
not touch any internals during operation.
If necessary: when using rope probes
the probe end (4) may be fixed to ensure
that (see page 23)!.
Optimization options
• Interference echo suppression:
Measurement can be optimised by
electronically tuning out interference
echoes.
