Installation General
Magnetic Level Gauge Applications
The unit should be fitted to the level gauge with reference to Fig1 using the mounting clips and insulation
(if required) supplied. The unit should be positioned such that the XXXX marks around the circumference
align with the upper and lower vessel connection points.
Ensure that the sensing tube is not distorted or strained during installation
The fixing clips should be spaced evenly along the length of the tube with a maximum centre distance
1000mm
If it is required to remove the transmitter for maintenance work ensure that any
insulation is correctly fitted during reassembly to ensure operating temperatures are
maintained within the range specified on the EU type approval certificate.
Immersion or in tank installation
The transmitter should be fitted to the tank with reference to Fig.2. The distance between the tank
connection and electronic housing will vary dependent on temperature and for a weld on connection be
factory set.
Caution
When using an adjustable sealing gland ensure that the maximum ambient temperature
for the electronic housing is not exceeded. (See technical data section).
Dependent on the length of the sensor tube an anchor point may be required at the bottom of the tank.
Where the transmitter is supplied with an adjustable gland care must be taken to
ensure that the electronic housing temperature is maintained within that specified on
the EU type examination certificate. Please consult the sales office
