Mounting
WARNING: Special handling precautions must be taken to protect the
face of the transducer from any damage.
•
Mount the transducer so that it is above the maximum material level by at least the
blanking value. Refer to the associated controller manual.
•
On liquid applications, mount the transducer face parallel to the liquid surface. On solids
applications, use a Siemens Milltronics Easy Aimer to help aim the transducer.
•
Do not overtighten. Most applications require only hand tightening of the mounting
hardware. Connect a safety chain from the transducer to a structural member to secure
installation. Consider using the optional temperature sensor when a flanged transducer
is used, when a fast temperature response is required, or in high temperature vessels.
For pressure tight applications, install transducers hand tight plus ½ turn to 1½
Note:
turns. PTFE tape or other appropriate sealant may be used to aid in sealing the threads for
use in pressure applications.
