Mounting Location
Notes:
• Keep the sensor at least 50 mm (2") away from any nozzle or tank wall.
• If multiple units are used, allow at least 100 mm (4") between them, to prevent interference
(mount diagonally if space is restricted).
• Do:
provide a sun shield to protect the transmitter from direct heat radiation.
• Do not:
exceed the permissible ambient temperature limits
• Do not:
mount Pointek CLS200/300 in locations subject to strong vibrations (if it can be
avoided).
Standard probe length: top or side mounting
vertical
normal process
level
High level alarm
• normally mounted into the vessel top, or
• through the tank wall at the detection level
Low level alarm
• mounted through the tank wall at the detection level
Standard configuration with extensions: top mounting
• Designed for top mounting, for high or low level alarm. Suspend the probe vertically so
that it reaches into the process at the desired detection level.
Process Cautions
• The maximum allowable torque on a horizontally installed rod is 15 Nm.
• Keep unit out of path of falling material, or protect probe from falling material.
• Avoid areas where material build up occurs.
• Take into account material surface configuration when installing unit.
• Ensure tensile load does not exceed probe or vessel ratings
