VEGA VEGACAL 67 Capacitive Level Sensor

Product Overview

Level Sensor VEGA VEGACAL 67

VEGA VEGACAL 67 capacitive level sensor provides continuous level measurement of bulk solids at high temperatures offering precise readings.

VEGACAL 67 level sensor has high flexibility thanks to a shortenable probe and the robust mechanical construction enables long lifetime and low maintenance requirements.

VEGACAL 67 Level Sensor Hazardous area Certifications

VEGACAL 67 capacitive level sensor is available with hazardous area certifications to meet ATEX & IECEx directives for Zone 1 and Zone 2 installations.

VEGA level sensors are suitable for use in hazardous areas and their instruments also have various ship approvals such as e.g. DNV, GL, LRS or ABS.

FunctioN

Sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. A capacitance change caused by a level change is evaluated by the VEGA integrated electronics and converted into an appropriate output signal. The level measurement is carried out over the entire sensor length without a blocking distance.

Materials

The wetted parts of the instrument are made of stainless steel and probe insulation is made of PTFE.

Housings

The level sensor housings are available as single chamber or double chamber version in plastic, stainless steel or aluminium with protection ratings up to IP68 (1 bar).

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.

VEGA LEVEL SENSORS – vegacal

Vegacal level sensors provide level measurement for bulk solids and liquids. In capacitive level measurement, the sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor where any change in capacitance due to a level change is converted into a level signal. VEGA is a global manufacturer of process and hazardous area instrumentation.
