Recommended Tools
· The site application documents (IPF, AAF), and Silo drawings· Set of small precision screwdrivers (for the terminal blocks)· 13mm open wrench· 4mm Allen Key (preferably with a handle)· Large adjustable wrench 18”· Stanley knife, Cutter, Pointed pliers, Insulating tape· Laser measurement device (or other means to ensure correct
positioning and distance to the material)· RS485 to USB converter, including drivers· 120Ohm and 250Ohm resistors· PC/Laptop

Positioning Guidelines
Important guidelines:• Not close to the filling point and not too far• Clear vision to peak of material at maximum level• Flange to be horizontal (scanner at 90° to the ground)• At least 10 mm (0.4”) gap between the socket’s bottom (or any
other obstacle) and the antenna's bottom

Positioning Guidelines (cont.)
Orientation:· The mounting direction is indicated by a tendon on the transducers
enclosure and a notch on the top of the thread fastening the flange· The 0º should point to the center of the vessel (including square
vessels and open bins)

· The Transducer case must fit the hole in the silo, if not another solution can be found with neck extension or by lowering the scanner inside the silo
· The widest part of the scanner is the transducers case: 193.3 mm (7.61”)
· Insert the flange onto the neck tube· Screw the nut to the neck thread and tight using an
18” adjustable wrench· Note: The diameter of the hole in the flange center
is 52 mm (2.1”)

· The Neck extension is available in three sizes:· 20cm = 8inches· 30cm = 12inches· 50cm = 20inches
· The neck extension must be purchased with a compatible scanner, an adjusted antennas cable is manufactured with the scanner and compatible with the require neck extension
Neck Extension

· Application Approval Form (AAF)· Provides background information and important
data regarding a required application· Go / No-Go – Simplify the approving procedure of
new applications· Provides basic understanding of customer’s
expectations from the 3DLevelScanner· Helps in deciding which product best fit the
application (S / M / MV / MVL)· To better understand the application, it is
recommended to request a detailed silo drawing

· Installation Preparation Form (IPF)· Provides all required data to prepare the site and
to configure the scanner· To be filled after application approval Form (AAF)· Main Objective – Maximum information before
shipping & installing the 3DLevelScanner· This form must be accompanied with detailed
drawing of the vessel
