5.1 MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS
5.1.1 Mounting position
- With cambered roof, Do not install the sensor in the tank center (b). Leave a 300mm (d) minimum distance
between the sensor and the tank smooth wall.
- Use a protective cover to protect the sensor from weather and direct sunlight (c).
- Do not install the sensor near the load zone (a).
- Make sure that in the sensor emission beam (lobe “α”) there are no obstacles (f,s) that can be
intercepted as level.
- Make sure that there is not foam presence on the product surface to be measured.
5.1.2 Blind distance
During installation is important to remember that in the sensor vicinity there is a blind zone (or BLIND DISTANCE)
of 0.25m (for 6m max METER range) or 0.4m (for 10m max METER range) where the sensor can not measure.
