VEGA LEVEL SENSOR – VEGAFLEX 66 FEATURES
FunctioN
High frequency microwave pulses are coupled onto a cable or rod and guided along the probe. The pulse is reflected by the product surface. The time from emission to reception of the signals is proportional to the level in the vessel.
Materials
The wetted parts of the instrument are made of stainless steel and the instrument seal is made of one of the following FKM, FFKM or EPDM.
Housings
The level sensor housings are available as double chamber version in plastic, stainless steel or aluminium with protection ratings up to IP66/IP67.
ELECTRONICS
VEGA sensors are available in different electronics versions. Apart from the two-wire electronics with 4 … 20 mA/HART, there are two pure digital versions with Profibus PA and Foundation Fieldbus possible as well as one version for connection to a signal conditioning instrument.
 Signal Output
- 4 -20 mA/HART in two-wire
- 4 -20 mA/HART Â in four-wire
- Profibus PA
- Foundation Fieldbus technology
VEGA LEVEL SENSORS – veGAFLEX
VEGAFLEX level sensors provide level measurement for bulk solids, liquids and separation layers (interfaces). In guided wave radar level measurement, microwave pulses are conducted along a cable or rod probe and reflected by the product surface. The measuring probe of the TDR sensor ensures that the signal reaches the medium without disruption. VEGA is a global manufacturer of process and hazardous area instrumentation.
