2.1 Intended use
CAUTION!
Responsibility for the use of the measuring devices with regard to suitability, intended use and
corrosion resistance of the used materials against the measured fluid lies solely with the
operator.
INFORMATION!
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from improper use or use for other than
the intended purpose.
This radar level transmitter measures distance, level, mass, volume, flow rate (in open
channels) and reflectivity of liquids, pastes and slurries. It does not touch the measured product.

Obstacles in the tank
Figure 2-13: Obstacles in the tank
Do not put the device directly above obstacles (agitator, support beams, heating tubes etc.). Parasitic signals from obstacles will cause the device to measure incorrectly.
1 Solution 1: Put the device on another process connection away from obstacles
2 Solution 2: Use the same process connection, but also use an "S" extension
3 Solution 3: Attach the device to the side of the tank and use an "L" (right angle) extension
OPTIWAVE 5200 C/F
CAUTION!
Do not put the device near to the product inlet. If the product that enters the tank touches the
antenna, the device will measure incorrectly. If the product fills the tank directly below the
antenna, the device will also measure incorrectly.
Figure 2-14: Product inlets
1 The device is in the correct position.
2 The device is too near to the product inlet.
