Installation
Mounting
Notes
•
Installation shall be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with
local governing regulations.
•
For heavy material, only top mounting of paddle switch is recommended.
•
Compact PLS 200 is recommended for side mounting on bins for low or
intermediate levels.
•
For PLS 200 Cable extension, the maximum pull force of the rope must not exceed
4 kN.
The Pointek PLS 200 is normally mounted into the vessel top (full detector) or through the
tank wall at the detection level (full, demand or empty detector). The PLS 200 can be
installed through a standard 1¼" NPT or 1½" BSP pipe coupling, depending on chosen
process thread.
After mounting and as a precaution against water ingress into the housing, turn the
housing clockwise until the cable entries point downward.
