    During work on and with the device the required personal protective equipment must always be worn. Appropriate use The OPTISWITCH 5300 C is a sensor for point level detection. You can find detailed information about the area of application in chapter "Product description". Operational reliability is ensured only if the instrument is properly used according to the specifications in the operating instructions manual as well as possible supplementary instructions.

  • Page 11: Mounting

    You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the nameplate. Switching point In general, OPTISWITCH 5300 C can be installed in any position. The instrument only has to be mounted in such a way that the tuning fork is at the height of the desired switching point.

  • Page 13: Mounting Instructions

    Fig. 7: Measures against moisture ingress Caution: Transport Do not hold OPTISWITCH 5300 C on the tuning fork. 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 (1.16 in). To mount the sensor, proceed as follows: 1. Screw the OPTISWITCH 5300 C into the mounting boss up to the stop. You can determine the later position already before welding. 2. Mark the position of the OPTISWITCH 5300 C on the mounting boss.
  • Page 15 Ambient temperature on the housing Inflowing medium If OPTISWITCH 5300 C is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount OPTISWITCH 5300 C at a position in the vessel where no distur- bances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. This applies particularly to instrument types with long extension tube. Fig. 9: Inflowing medium...
  • Page 16 Extreme vibration caused by the process or the equipment, e.g. agitators or turbulence in the vessel, can cause a long extension tube of OPTISWITCH 5300 C to vibrate in resonance. This leads to increased stress on the upper weld joint. Should a longer tube version be necessary, you can provide a suitable support directly above the tuning fork to secure the extension tube.
