3.1 Mounting preparation
The radar sensor can be mounted in two different ways:
•
with a mounting strap
•
via a collar or adapter flange.
The mounting strap enables simple mounting on the vessel wall or
silo top. It is suitable for wall, ceiling or boom mounting. Especially in
open vessels this is a very easy and effective way to align the sensor
to the bulk solid surface.
