Product catalog summary
Overview
The VEGAMET 841 is a controller designed for field housing applications, specifically for use with continuously measuring analogue level sensors. It processes and displays measured values from connected 4-20 mA sensors and is suitable for harsh field conditions.

Application Area
This controller is ideal for implementing pump controls, flow measurements on open channels and weirs, and totalizers. It can monitor limit values and switch relays for applications such as overfill protection according to WHG standards.

Benefits
  • Easy-to-read display in various lighting conditions.
  • Eliminates the need for complex programming of control tasks.
  • Facilitates simple and reliable commissioning and diagnosis via smartphone.

Functionality
The VEGAMET 841 powers the connected sensor, processes measurement signals, and displays the requested parameters. It can output measurement signals to remote displays or control systems and includes operating relays for device control.

Technical Specifications
  • Operating Voltage: AC 100-230 V, DC 24-65 V.
  • Power Consumption: Max 11 VA; 3 W.
  • Sensor Input: 1 x 4-20 mA, active or passive input.
  • Relay Output: 3 x operating relay, configurable as fail-safe.
  • Current Output: 0/4-20 mA, max load 500 Ω.
  • Bluetooth Interface: Bluetooth 5.0, compatible with 4.0 LE.
  • Display: Graphic-capable LC display, 89 x 56 mm.
  • Ambient Temperature: -40 to +60 °C for the instrument, -20 to +60 °C for display readability.
  • Protection Rating: IP66/IP67, Type 4X.

Adjustment and Connectivity
The VEGAMET 841 features an integrated display and adjustment unit, with options for Bluetooth connectivity for wireless adjustments via smartphones, tablets, or PCs. Adjustments can be made using a free app or via PACTware/DTM on Windows PCs.

Electrical Connection
The device includes a wiring plan for voltage supply, relay outputs, current output, and sensor input. Detailed connection instructions are available in the operating manual.

Dimensions
The controller measures 162 mm x 76 mm x 111 mm.

Specification sheet VEGAMET 841-1

Specification sheet Controller in field housing for a continuously measuring analogue level sensor Technical data Operating voltage ƲƲ Nominal voltage AC ƲƲ Nominal voltage DC Power consumption Application area The VEGAMET 841 controller feeds the connected 4 … 20 mA sensor, processes the measured values and displays them. A large display for data visualisation is integrated in the housing designed for rough field conditions. It enables simple implementation of pump controls, flow measurements on open channels and weirs and totalizers. With VEGAMET 841, limit values can be reliably monitored and relays can be switched, e.g. for an overfill protection according to WHG. Your benefit • Easy-to-read display from a distance, even in sunlight and darkness • Complex programming of control tasks is no longer necessary • Simple and reliable commissioning and diagnosis of the measuring points via smartphone Function The VEGAMET 841 controller can power the connected sensor and process its measurement signals. The requested parameter is shown on the display and also output to the integrated current output for further processing. The measurement signal can thus be transferred to a remote display or a superordinate control system. Operating relays for control of pumps or other devices are also integrated.
