Installation conditions for
level measurements
L00-FMU4xxxx-17-00-00-de-005
• Do not install the sensor in the middle of the tank (3). We recommend leaving a distance between the sensor
and the tank wall (1) measuring 1/6 of the tank diameter.
• Use a protective cover, in order to protect the device from direct sun or rain (2) → ä 39, "Weather
protection cover".
• Avoid measurements through the filling curtain (4).
• Make sure that equipment (5) such as limit switches, temperature sensors, etc. are not located within the
emitting angle α. In particular, symmetrical equipment (6) such as heating coils, baffles etc. can influence
measurement.
• Align the sensor so that it is vertical to the product surface (7).
• Never install two ultrasonic measuring devices in a tank, as the two signals may affect each other.
• To estimate the detection range, use the 3 dB emitting angle α.
