Vessel installations<br />

Vessel installations, such as e.g. ladders,<br />

often cause false echoes. Make sure when<br />

planning your measuring location that the<br />

radar signals have free access to the measured<br />

product.<br />

Struts<br />

Ladder<br />

Ladder<br />

Struts, like other vessel installations, can<br />

cause strong false echoes that are superimposed<br />

on the useful echoes. Small baffles<br />

effectively prevent a direct reception of false<br />

echoes. These false echoes are scattered<br />

and diffused in the surrounding space and<br />

are then filtered out as "echo noise“ by the<br />

measuring electronics.<br />

Inflowing material<br />

Do not mount the instrument in or above the<br />

filling stream. Ensure that you detect the<br />

product surface and not the inflowing material.<br />

Mounting and installation<br />

Correct Incorrect<br />

If the sensor is mounted too close to the<br />

vessel wall, product buildup and other deposits<br />

on the vessel wall cause false echoes.<br />

Position the sensor at a sufficient distance<br />

from the vessel wall. Please also note chapter<br />

"4.1 General installation instructions“.<br />
