5 Mounting
 Verify that the product is not mounted in hazardous areas (Ex areas).
5.1 Mounting the photoelectric probe
 Verify that the probe is submerged even in the case of small amounts of
liquid so that it triggers the alarm as early as possible.
 Verify that the tip of the probe is not subjected to mechanical load.
1. Mount the photoelectric probe at the lowest point of the area to be moni-
tored (lying or suspended).
2. Do not suspend the probe directly from the control unit. Use a cable clamp
or the cable gland to fasten the probe and provide strain relief.
3. Do not place the probe at locations where it is subject to bright external
light (below lamps, direct sunlight through windows). Protect the probe
from direct light.
5.2 Mounting the floating probe
1. Mount the probe in such a way that it is suspended at the height/level of
the required switching point. Use a cable clamp or the cable gland to fas-
ten the probe and provide strain relief.
2. Fasten the probe with the enclosed cable G1 gland.
