• A metal still-pipe can be used to avoid disturbing objects, turbulence,
and foam (G)

• The walls in non-metallic tanks are invisible to the radar signal, so
nearby objects outside of the tank may be detected
• Choose the largest possible antenna diameter for installation. A larger
antenna concentrates the radar beam, and will be less susceptible to
obstruction interference, and assures maximum antenna gain
• Multiple 5400 transmitters can be used in the same tank without
interfering with each other (H)
