Product catalog summary
Overview
The VEGAPULS C 11 is a radar sensor designed for continuous level measurement in various industrial applications, particularly in water treatment and bulk solids containers. It operates using non-contact 80 GHz radar technology, ensuring maintenance-free operation and accurate measurements regardless of environmental conditions.

Specifications
  • Measuring range: Up to 8 meters (26.25 feet)
  • Deviation: ≤ 5 mm
  • Beam angle: 8°
  • Output signal: 4 … 20 mA
  • Process fitting: Thread G1½, 1½ NPT, R1½
  • Process pressure: -1 … 3 bar (-100 … 200 kPa/-14.5 … 43.51 psig)
  • Process temperature: -40 … +60 °C (-40 … +140 °F)
  • Ambient temperature: -40 … +60 °C (-40 … +140 °F)
  • Operating voltage: 12 … 35 V DC

Materials and Housing
The sensor's wetted parts are made of PVDF, with a process seal of FKM. The housing is optimized for water/wastewater applications, achieving protection rating IP66/IP68.

Electronics and Adjustment
The device features two-wire electronics (4 … 20 mA) and supports wireless adjustment via Bluetooth, compatible with iOS, Android, and PCs using PACTware.

Electrical Connection
The connection cable is permanently attached, with brown (+) and blue (-) wires for voltage supply or processing systems.

Dimensions
The sensor has a diameter of 68 mm (2.68") and 76 mm (2.99"), with various thread options for mounting.

Specification sheet Two-wire 4 … 20 mA Radar sensor for continuous level measurement Technical data Measuring range Deviation Beam angle Output signal Process fitting Mounting connection Process pressure Process temperature Ambient temperature Operating voltage Materials The wetted parts of the instrument are made of PVDF. The process seal consists of FKM. The connection cable is PVC insulated. You will find a complete overview of the available materials and seals in the "Configurator" at www.vega.com and "Products". Application area The VEGAPULS C 11 is the ideal radar sensor for non-contact level measurement in all standard applications where a high degree of protection is required. It is particularly suitable for level measurement in water treatment, pumping stations and rain overflow basins, for flow measurement in open channels and level monitoring and for many other industrial applications. The sensor is suitable both for measuring liquids and for maintenancefree use on small bulk silos or bulk solids containers. Housing versions The housing is optimized for applications in the water/waste water industry and manufactured of PVDF. Due to the encapsulated cable gland, protection rating IP66/IP68 (3 bar) is achieved. Electronics versions The devices are constructed with two-wire electronics 4 … 20 mA. Your benefit • Maintenance-free operation due to non-contact 80 GHz radar technology • Exact measuring results independent of product, process and ambient conditions • Low-cost sensor for simple measuring tasks Function The sensor emits a continuous radar signal through the antenna. The emitted signal is reflected by the medium and received as an echo by the antenna. The frequency difference between the emitted and received signal is proportional to the distance and depends on the filling height. The determined filling height is converted into a respective output signal and output as measured value. VEGA Grieshaber KG, Am Hohenstein 113, 77761 Schiltach/Germany, www.vega.c
