VEGA VEGASON 64 Profibus PA - Manual (Page 19)

In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the
sensor in the center of the vessel, as measurement is then possible
down to the lowest point of the vessel bottom.

Preferably the transducer should be mounted without socket flush to
the vessel top.
If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount
VEGASON
64 on a socket piece. The socket end should be smooth
and burr-free, if possible also rounded. Carry out a false echo storage.
Align the sensor in liquids as vertical as possible to the product surface
to achieve optimum measuring results.
Fig. 12: Alignment in liquids
To optimally align the sensor to solid products, a swivelling holder can
be implemented.
The ultrasonic sensor should be installed at a location where no
installations cross the ultrasonic beam.
