Fig. 13: Installation of the probe from the side
Length of the probe
If the probe is longer than 3 m, the rod must be supported in the ves-
sel due to the weight.
Provide an appropriate support.
Rod probe
If you have enough space next to the vessel, it is also possible to
insert a completely or partly assembled rod probe into the vessel from
the side.
Socket
If your vessel has a long and/or thin mounting socket, it is possible
that the bow-shaped segment cannot be installed from outside.
In such case, you have to get inside the vessel to mount the bow-
shaped segment.
Manhole
If you can reach the inside of the vessel through a manhole, this will
facilitate installation. It allows you to easily mount or fasten the probe.
