Arrange for a bore hole in the tank lid� It must have a minimum diameter (d) to ►
enable sufficient transfer of the measured signal to the probe� The diameter
depends on the wall thickness of the tank lid:
Wall thickness [mm] 1���5 5���8 8���11
Bore hole diameter [mm] 35 45 55
Install the flange plate with the flat surface showing to the tank and fix it with ►
appropriate screws�
A seal (B) can be inserted between flange plate and tank (some flange plates
are supplied with seal)�
