Other installations
• Select the mounting location such that the
distance to internals (5) (e.g. limit switch,
struts) > 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
(→ ä 27)!
Optimization options
Interference echo suppression: Measurement
can be optimised by electronically tuning out
interference echoes.

Separable probes
If there is little mounting space (distance to the
ceiling), it is advisable to use separable rod pro-
bes (∅16 mm).
• max. probe length 10 m (394 in)
• max. sideways capacity 20 Nm
• probes are separable several times with the
lengths:
– 500 mm (19.68 in)
– 1000 mm (39.37 in)
•torque: 15 Nm

Centering of probe end
If the centering disk is mounted at the end of the
probe, it enables a reliable measuring.
See "Ordering structure", → ä 6.
Centering disk for rod probes:
• d = 45 mm (DN50 (2"))
• d = 75 mm (DN80 (3") + DN100 (4"))
