Other installations
• Select the mounting location such that the distance
to internals (5) (e.g. limit switch, struts) is
> 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
secure it (→ ä 26)!.
Optimization options
• Interference echo suppression: measurement can
be optimized 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 probes
(∅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 information", → ä 58.
• Centering disk for rod probes:
– d = 45 mm (DN50 (2"))
– d = 75 mm (DN80 (3") + DN100 (4"))
