Radar Gauge
Nozzle Considerations Non-horizontal Mounting Surface
In most applications, the gauge should be mounted perpendicular to the level
surface. It is acceptable to have the mounting flange up to 2° off from
perpendicular. In applications with low dielectric constants or long measuring
ranges, mounting the radar gauge with the flange horizontal to the product
level becomes more important in order to receive an adequate return signal
(Vessel Characteristics on page 2-7). For more information regarding
mounting considerations, contact Rosemount Customer Central at
