LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8136 • 4 ... 20 mA/HART - two-wire
Fig. 9: Recommended socket mounting
If the reflective properties of the medium are good, you can mount
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8136 on sockets which are higher than the
length of the antenna. You will find recommended values for socket
heights in the following illustration. The socket end should be smooth
and burr-free, if possible also rounded. After installation you must
carry out a false echo storage.
