Installation in bypass
A0019446
 23 Installation in bypass
1 Marking for antenna alignment
2 Tank connectors
Align the marker perpendicular (90°) to the tank connectors.
Measurements can be performed through an open full bore ball valve without any problems.
After mounting, the housing can be turned 350° in order to simplify access to the display and the
terminal compartment.
Recommendations for the bypass pipe
Metal (no plastic or enamel coating).
Constant diameter.
Select horn antenna as big as possible. For intermediate sizes (e.g. 95 mm (3.5 in)) select next
larger antenna and adapt it mechanically (for horn antennas).
Diameter difference between horn antenna and inner diameter of the bypass as small as possible.
At any transition (i.e. when using a ball valve or mending pipe segments), no gap may be created
exceeding 1 mm (0.04 in).
In the area of the tank connections (~ ±20 cm (7.87 in)) a reduced accuracy of the measurement
has to be expected.
