3.2 Installation conditions
3.2.1 Installation conditions for level measurement
Conditions
• For level measurements the Gammapilot M is mounted vertically; if possible the detector
head should point downwards
• The angle of emission of the source container must be exactly aligned to the measuring
range of the Gammapilot M. Observe the measuring range marks of the Gammapilot M.
• If several Gammapilot M devices are connected in cascade mode, there should not be any
gap between the individual measuring ranges.
• The source container and the Gammapilot M should be mounted as close to the vessel as
possible. Any access to the beam must be blocked to ensure that it is not possible to reach
into this area.
• The Gammapilot M should be protected against direct sunlight in order to increase its
service life. Use a protective cover if necessary.
• The mounting device FHG60 or an equivalent mounting device should be used to secure the
Gammapilot M (Operating Instructions -> "Accessories" section).
The mounting device itself must be installed in such a way that it can withstand the weight
of the Gammapilot M under all anticipated conditions (e.g. vibrations). (Operating
Instructions -> "Installation conditions" section)
The Gammapilot M should be given additional support to prevent damage to the
connecting cable or to the unit if it falls.

of the desired level limit.
• The angle of emission of the source container must be exactly aligned to the measuring
range of the Gammapilot M. Observe the measuring range marks of the Gammapilot M.
• The source container and the Gammapilot M should be mounted as close to the vessel as
possible. Any access to the beam must be blocked to ensure that it is not possible to reach
into this area.
• The Gammapilot M should be protected against direct sunlight in order to increase its
service life. Use a protective cover if necessary.
• The mounting device FHG60 or an equivalent mounting device should be used to secure the

3.2.3 Installation conditions for density and concentration measurements
Conditions
• If possible, density and concentration should be measured on vertical pipes with forward
flow from bottom to top.
• If only horizontal pipes are accessible, the path of the beam should also be arranged
horizontally to minimize the influence of air bubbles and deposits.
• The Endress+Hauser clamping device FHG61 or an equivalent clamping device should be
used to secure the radiation source container and the Gammapilot M to the measuring tube.
The clamping device itself must be installed in such a way that it can withstand the weight
of the source container and the Gammapilot M under all anticipated conditions.
• The sample point may not be further than 20 m (66 ft) from the measuring point.
• The distance of the density measurement to pipe bends is ≥3 x pipe diameter, and ≥10 x
pipe diameter in the case of pumps.
Measuring system arrangement
The arrangement of the source container and the Gammapilot M depends on the pipe
diameter (or the length of the irradiated measuring path) and the density measuring range.
These two parameters determine the measuring effect (relative change in the pulse rate). The
measuring effect increases with the length of the radiation path through the medium.
Therefore, it is advisable to use diagonal irradiation or a measurement section for small pipe
diameters.
To select the measuring system arrangement please contact your Endress+Hauser sales
organization or use the Applicator™ 1)
1) configuration software. The Applicator™ is available from your Endress+Hauser sales organization.

• To increase the accuracy of density measurements, the use of a collimator is
recommended. The collimator screens the detector against environmental radiation.
• When planning, the total weight of the measuring system must be taken into
consideration.
• The Gammapilot M should be given additional support to secure it against falling or to
prevent damage to the connecting cable.
• A clamping device (FHG61) and a measurement section (FHG62) are available as
accessories (Operating Instructions -> "Accessories" section)
