Installation Solicap M FTI55, FTI56

3.9.3 Preparing to install rod probes FTI55
Correct installation
a. For maximum level limit detection, a short threaded coupling is used.
b. For minimum point level detection, a short threaded coupling is used.
The probe tip points slightly downwards so that bulk solids slide off more easily.
The protective cover protects the probe rod from collapsing mounds or mechanical strain at
the outflow.
c. In the event of light buildup on the silo wall, the threaded coupling is welded internally.
The probe tip points slightly downwards so that bulk solids slide off more easily.
Incorrect installation
d. The threaded coupling is too long. This may cause material to settle inside and result in error
switching.
e. Horizontal mounting means a risk of error switching in the event of heavy buildup on the silo
wall.
In this case, the Solicap M FTI55 (rod probe) with inactive length is recommended.
f. In areas where product buildup occurs, the device cannot detect if the silo is "empty".
In this case, the FTI56 (rope probe) should be installed from above.
