Answer / anil patil

when we installed it straight (90degree)the sensor may not
touch the media properly ,but at 45degree sensor can touch
easily and we can installed more sensors length in pipe by
this angle.

Answer / haridass

The temperature probes will be located in straight for the
pipeline medium temperature measurement,

but in the tank it can be only located at side of the tank
at perpendicular or 45 degree position (not straight),

if it is quiet perpendicular mean it can measure only when
the liquid reaches the probe level,

the 45 degree location helps to measure for the wide level
of the liquid in the tank.
