Mounting
• Mount the transducer so that it is above the maximum material level by at least the
blanking value. Refer to the associated controller manual.
• On liquid applications, mount the transducer face parallel to the liquid surface. On
solids applications, use a Siemens Milltronics Easy Aimer to help aim the
transducer.
• Do not overtighten. Most applications require only hand tightening of the mounting
hardware. Connect a safety chain from the transducer to a structural member to
secure installation. Consider using the optional temperature sensor when a flanged
transducer is used, when a fast temperature response is required, or in high
temperature vessels.
Mounting – Solids Applications
WARNING: Special handling precautions must be taken to protect the
face of the transducer from any damage.
Note: For pressure tight applications, install transducers hand tight plus ½ turn to 1½ turns.
PTFE tape or other appropriate sealant may be used to aid in sealing the threads for use in
pressure applications.
WARNING: Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.
