7.4 Installation of the unit with single probe

Before installing and removing the unit: Make sure that no pressure is applied to the system and that there is no medium in the tank that could leak� Also always note the potential dangers related to extreme machine and medium temperatures�

For installation in closed metal tanks, the tank lid serves as a launching plate) (→

5�1)�

Options are as follows:

• Screw into a G¾ process connection directly in the tank lid (for tanks with thick walls)�

• Installation in the tank lid using a flange plate (for tanks with thin walls)�

During installation of the process connection on the tank side observe the subsequent orientation of the housing (display orientation, cable outlet)�

The sensor housing cannot be rotated with respect to the internal thread�

Subsequent alignment of the sensor housing is therefore not possible�

Furthermore, installation in open tanks (→ 7.4.1) and plastic tanks is

possible (→ 7.4.2).
