VEGA VEGASON 63 Ultrasonic Level Sensor

Product Overview

Level Sensor VEGA VEGASON 63

VEGA VEGASON 63 ultrasonic level sensor provides continuous level measurement of liquids or bulk solids.

VEGASON 63 level sensor is a favoured solution for applications such as measuring liquids in storage tanks or open basins and detecting bulk solids in small to average sized vessels.

The level sensor offers maintenance free operation thanks to using a non-contact measuring principle.

Application

• Conveyor belt for sugar beet

VEGASON 63 Level Sensor Hazardous area Certifications

VEGASON 63 ultrasonic 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

Short ultrasonic pulses (18kHz to 70 kHz) are emitted by the traducer in the same direction as the product so the pulses are reflected from the product surface and then received back by the tranducer.

Materials

The wetted parts of the instrument are made of PVDF. The process seal is made of 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
• 4-20 mA/HART
• PA
• FF

Approvals

• ATEX
• IEC
• FM
• CSA
• EAC (Gost)
• Ship

VEGA LEVEL SENSORS – veGASON

VEGASON level sensors provide non contact level measurement for bulk solids and liquids mainly designed for simple applications. In ultrasonic level measurement, ultrasonic pulses are directed towards the medium and reflected back. The elapsed time from emission to reception of the signals is proportional to the level in the tank. VEGA is a global manufacturer of process and hazardous area instrumentation.
