Sensor Installation<br />
Prosonic sensors are provided with 1”<br />
NPT fittings for mounting flexibility. The<br />
FDU 80/81F sensors may also be<br />
installed with a slip-on flange.<br />
For optimum performance, the sensor<br />
should be installed so that its lower edge<br />
is below the top of the tank or silo. This<br />
can be done if the maximum level does<br />
not enter into the blocking distance (blind<br />
space) of the sensor. See illustration<br />
below.<br />
Flange mounting<br />
Pipe well mounting is used when the<br />
material high level is high enough that<br />
the sensor must be moved to allow for<br />
the blocking distance.<br />

Sensor positioner mounting, below,<br />
depicts how the sensor can be installed<br />
in the best position with respect to the<br />
measured material. A sensor positioner<br />
can be used to install a sensor in a tank<br />
that has an opening smaller than the<br />
sensor’s diameter.<br />
