Installation instructions (for reference only)
1. Installation in still water (deep wells, pools, liquid tanks, etc.)
Control
room Secondary instrument Secondary
or control system instrument
Ventilated
Sewage
Installation tips:
1) When measuring the level of stationary fluid in an open container, place the level transmitter
vertically into the bottom of the container and secure the cable connecting the transmitter to the
junction box at the opening of the container.
2) When the medium viscosity is relatively large (such as sewage pool), casing or bracket can be
installed to ensure that the transmitter can be put into the bottom of the container.
3) When doing an open-air installation, the terminal box of the transmitter should be placed in a
ventilated and dry place to avoid direct exposure to light and rain, which may cause the shell
temperature to be too high or water to get inside and damage the internal circuit board.

2. Installation in moving water (rivers, lakes, etc.)
Control room Control room
Steel pipe
Damping device
Flow direction
Installation tips:
1) When measuring the water level in flowing water, when the medium fluctuates greatly, a steel pipe
can be inserted in the water channel with an inner diameter of about 50 cm. Make several holes of
about Φ5 in diameter on the side of the immersed pipe opposite to the flow direction to allow water to
enter the pipe and fix the cable and junction box at the outlet of the pipe.
2) When the medium of the water channel fluctuates greatly or the sediment is large, a damping device
can be installed to filter the sediment, eliminate the adverse effects of dynamic pressure and wave
and ensure the measurement accuracy.
3) When installing the product in lightening intensified area, please indicate “Lightning Protection” when
placing an order. Meanwhile, it is recommended that users install lightning protection devices at the
site and ensure that the product and power supply are reliably grounded to reduce damage to the
transmitter caused by lightning.
