4 Mounting

4.1 General instructions

In general, VEGAVIB 55 can be mounted in any position. The

instrument must be mounted in such a way that the vibrating

element is at the height of the requested switching point.

Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to

power supply") and tighten the cable gland.
You can give your VEGAVIB 55 additional protection against

moisture penetration by leading the connection cable down-

ward in front of the cable entry. Rain and condensation water

can thus drain off. This applies mainly to mounting outdoors, in

areas where moisture is expected (e.g. by cleaning processes)

or on cooled or heated vessels.

Do not hold VEGAVIB 55 on the vibrating element. The sensor

can be damaged by the weight of the instrument.
Remove the protective cover just before mounting.

The process fitting must be sealed if there is gauge or low

pressure in the vessel. Before use, check if the seal material is

resistant against the measured product and the process

temperature.
The max. permissible pressure is stated in chapter "Technical

data" in the "Supplement" or on the type label of the sensor.

The vibrating level switch is a measuring instrument and must

be treated accordingly. Bending the vibrating element will

destroy the instrument.
