Disassembly and disposal

Subject to change without notice
The sensor can typically be used on plastic tank walls of about 0.5 - 6 mm and glass
walls of about 0.5 - 4 mm without calibration.
If the factory settings (full state taught in at a 2-mm distance to metallic destination)
are not sufficient, the sensor can be taught in using cables.
Calibration in full state
For most applications, calibration with a full tank or pipe is sufficient.
For applications with various types of fluids or large temperature ranges, it can be bene‐
ficial to teach in the sensor with half the sensor surface covered.
Calibration in empty state
For most applications, calibration with an empty tank or pipe is sufficient.
For applications in which deposits, foam residues or moisture are expected, calibration
can be performed with existing residues.

The sensor must be disposed of according to the applicable country-specific regula‐
tions. Efforts should be made during the disposal process to recycle the constituent
materials (particularly precious metals).
