probe: ~1/6 to 1/4 of the container diameter.
• Not central (2) in metallic tanks.

• Please order the probe length such that it ends
approx. 30 mm above the floor of the tank.
• Temperature conditions must be met.

Optimization options
• Interference echo suppression: Measurement
can be optimised by electronically tuning out
interference echoes.
• Bypass pipe and stilling well (only for liquids):
for viscosities of up to 500 cSt, a bypass pipe,
stilling well or a coax probe can be used to
prevent interference.
