2.3.2 Probe Length
If the geometry of your application requires a probe short-
er than 12" (305 mm) of active length, refer to Figure 1
below to determine the minimum dielectric constant in
which it can be used.

When installing, apply wrench to mounting gland only.
Guard element should be located free of nozzle.
Caution: When a probe is used in an abrasive medium, inspect the
probe at least annually for visible surface wear. In case any
wear is found, replace the probe or consult the factory.
2.4.1 Horizontal Mounting
Unit will signal at probe level. Refer to Figures 2 and 3.
Caution: Do NOT horizontally mount the unit in a nozzle deeper than
3" (75 mm). Refer to Figures 2 and 3. The medium may
build up in the nozzle and cause false actuation.

2.4.2 Vertical Mounting
As medium rises on the probe, the unit will signal at a
point determined by the calibration of the unit and the
dielectric constant of the medium. In conductive media,
the actuation point will be at the tip of the probe over a
wide range of adjustment. Refer to Figure 4.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Thread amplifier assembly into mounting bushing on tank
using suitable pipe compound or thread tape. Assembly
may also be attached to a flange and bolted to the vessel
using a suitable gasket.
2. Tighten securely, being certain that the wrench is applied
ONLY to the mounting gland. Refer to Figures 2
through 4.
