Kevlar.
In order to avoid faulty measured values, make
sure that the sensor does not oscillate.

Mounting bracket
For a rigid mounting, a mounting bracket with
opening for thread G1½, e.g. from the VEGA
product range, is recommended. The mounting
of the sensor in the bracket is carried out via a
G1½ counter nut of plastic. Take note of chapter
"Mounting instructions" for the distance to the
