The wetted parts of the instrument are made of PVDF. The process seal is made of FKM. The sensor is suitable both for measuring liquids and for use on small bulk solids silos or bulk solids containers. Housing versions It is particularly suitable for level measurement in water treatment, storage tanks with acids and lyes, additives in all industrial areas, or for measuring levels through a plastic tank or IBC container. Your benefit A complete overview of the available materials and seals can be found on our homepage under " Products" and " Configure & Order". The housing is made of PBT plastic and is available in protection rating IP66/IP67. • Maintenance-free operation due to non-contact 80 GHz radar technology Electronics versions • High accuracy and universal measuring range. Maintenance-free operation due to non-contact measuring principle • Exact measurement results independent of medium properties and process conditions 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.com The instrument is available in the 4 … 20 mA/HART electronics version. Worldwide approvals are available for VEGA instruments, e.g. for use in hazardous areas, on ships or in hygienic applications. The technical data in the respective safety instructions are valid for approved instruments (e.g. with Ex approval). In some cases, these data can differ from the data listed herein.
