Mounting strap with plas- A mounting strap is available for mounting the instrument with plastic tic horn antenna horn antenna to the wall or ceiling.
4 Mounting 4 Protection against moisture Mounting 4.1 General instructions Protect your instrument against moisture ingress through the following measures: • • • Use the recommended cable (see chapter "Connecting to power supply") Tighten the cable gland Loop the connection cable downward in front of the cable gland This applies particularly to: • • • Outdoor mounting Installations in areas where high humidity is expected (e.g.
4 Mounting Mounting strap 4.2 Mounting versions, plastic horn antenna The optional mounting strap allows simple mounting of the instrument on a wall, ceiling or boom. Especially in the case of open vessels, this is a simple and effective way to align the sensor to the surface of the bulk solid material. The following versions are available: • • Mounting strap - Ceiling mounting Length 300 mm Length 170 mm The instrument is normally mounted vertically with a bracket on the ceiling.
4 Mounting Fig. 4: Wall mounting with inclined wall via the mounting strap with length 300 mm Flange Two versions are available for mounting the instrument on a socket: • • Combi compression flange Adapter flange Combi compression flange The combi compression flange is suitable for different vessel flanges DN 80, ASME 3" and JIS 80. It comes not sealed against the radar sensor and can thus only be used unpressurized.
4 Mounting 1 2 3 Fig. 6: Adapter flange 1 2 3 Connection screw Adapter flange Process seal 4.3 Mounting preparations, mounting strap The mounting strap is supplied unassembled (optionally) and must be screwed to the sensor before setup with three hexagon socket screws M5 x 10 and spring washers. Max. torque, see chapter "Technical data". Required tools: Allen wrench size 4. There are two different variants of screwing the strap to the sensor, see following illustration: 1 2 Fig.
4 Mounting Polarisation 4.4 Mounting instructions Radar sensors for level measurement emit electromagnetic waves. The polarization is the direction of the electrical component of these waves. The polarization direction is marked by a nose on the housing, see following drawing: 1 Fig. 8: Position of the polarisation 1 Nose for marking the direction of polarisation Note: When the housing is rotated, the direction of polarization changes and hence the influence of the false echo on the measured value.
4 Mounting Fig. 10: Mounting of the radar sensor with inflowing medium 47247-EN-170315 Silo with lateral filling In bulk solids silos with lateral pneumatic filling the instrument should not be mounted above the filling stream, as the radar signal will be disrupted. The optimal mounting position is to the side of the filling aperture. To avoid heavy soiling, the distance to any filter or dust exhauster should be as large as possible.
4 Mounting Fig. 11: Mounting of the radar sensor with inflowing medium Type of socket Information: The mounting socket should be as short as possible and its end rounded. This reduces false echoes from the vessel mounting socket. Fig. 12: Recommended socket mounting If the medium has good reflective properties, you can also mount the VEGAPULS 69 on longer sockets. Approximate socket heights are shown in the following illustration.
h 4 Mounting d The below charts specify the max. pipe socket length h depending on the diameter d. Socket length h 80 mm ≤ 200 mm 100 mm ≤ 300 mm 150 mm ≤ 500 mm Socket diameter d Socket length h 3" ≤ 7.87 in 4" ≤ 11.8 in 6" ≤ 19.7 in In order to measure as much of the vessel volume as possible, the sensor should be aligned so that the radar signal reaches the lowest level in the vessel.
4 Mounting r 1/3 r...1/2 r Fig. 14: Mounting position and orientation With the help of an optional swivelling holder, the sensor can be easily aligned to the vessel centre. The necessary angle of inclination depends on the vessel dimensions. It can be easily checked with a suitable bubble tube or mechanic's level on the sensor.
4 Mounting d α a Fig. 15: Proposal for installation after orientation VEGAPULS 69 47247-EN-170315 The following table shows the necessary angle of inclination.

The necessary angle of inclination of 4° can be read out from this table. Proceed as follows to adjust the angle of inclination with the swivelling holder: 1.
4 Mounting Small, inclined sheet metal baffles above the installations scatter the radar signals and prevent direct interfering reflections. Fig. 17: Cover flat, large-area profiles with deflectors Material heaps Large material heaps are best measured with several instruments, which can be mounted on e.g. traverse cranes. For this type of application it is advantageous to orient the sensor perpendicular to the bulk solid surface. The sensors do not influence each other.
4 Mounting 2 3 max. 50 mm (1.97") 1 Fig. 19: Mounting the instrument on insulated vessels. 1 2 3 Mounting in multiple chamber silo Electronics housing Spacer Vessel insulation The walls of multiple-chamber silos are often made of profile material, e.g. profile sheeting, to ensure the required stability. If the radar sensor is mounted very close to a heavily structured vessel wall, substantial interfering reflections can be generated.
4 Mounting Fig. 21: Installation and orientation in multiple chamber silos Dust deposits - Rinsing air connection To avoid heavy buildup and dust on the antenna, the sensor should not be mounted close to the dust exhauster inside the vessel. To protect the sensor against buildup, particularly in case of strong condensation, air rinsing is recommended.
