The VEGA VEGASON 61 Radar Level Meter is a sophisticated and reliable instrument designed for continuous level measurement in a wide variety of industrial applications. As part of VEGA's extensive range of level measurement solutions, the VEGASON 61 combines advanced technology with robust construction to provide accurate and consistent level readings, making it an essential component in modern industrial processes.
The VEGASON 61 operates based on the radar principle. It emits extremely short microwave pulses from its antenna system towards the surface of the liquid or bulk solid being measured. These pulses travel through the air or gas in the vessel and are reflected when they encounter the product surface. The time it takes for the pulse to travel from the emitter to the product surface and back to the receiver is measured. Since the speed of light (which is the speed at which the microwave pulses propagate) is a known constant, the distance from the sensor to the product surface can be accurately calculated using the formula: distance = speed of light × time / 2. This distance measurement is then converted into a level reading based on the pre - set parameters related to the vessel's dimensions and the installation height of the sensor.
Features
Distance: The VEGASON 61 has an impressive measuring range - distance. For liquid applications, it can measure up to 5 meters away. In scenarios where it is used to detect bulk solids, the effective measuring range is up to 2 meters. This range makes it suitable for a wide range of vessel sizes, from small storage containers to larger industrial tanks. For instance, in a small - scale chemical plant, where storage tanks may have a height of 3 - 4 meters, the VEGASON 61 can accurately measure the liquid levels within these tanks. In a food processing facility, when measuring the level of granular bulk solids in a 1.5 - meter - high silo, the sensor can also function effectively within its specified range for bulk solids.
Product Overview
The VEGASON 61 offers a high level of accuracy, with a measurement accuracy of ± 4 mm. This precision is crucial in industries where even small deviations in level measurement can have significant impacts on the overall process. In the pharmaceutical industry, for example, accurate level measurement of raw materials and intermediate products is essential to ensure the quality and consistency of the final products. In a distillation process, where the precise control of liquid levels is necessary for efficient separation of components, the high accuracy of the VEGASON 61 helps in maintaining the optimal operating conditions.
Process Temperature: The instrument can withstand a process temperature range from - 40 °C to 80 °C. This wide temperature range allows it to be used in various industries with different temperature requirements. In the refrigeration industry, where low - temperature storage of liquids or bulk solids is common, the VEGASON 61 can operate reliably at extremely cold temperatures. On the other hand, in applications such as hot water storage or certain chemical reactions that occur at elevated temperatures, the sensor can also function within its temperature limit.
Process Pressure: It can handle process pressures ranging from - 0.2 bar to 2 bar. This pressure range is suitable for many industrial processes, including those in the water and wastewater treatment industry, where the pressure in pipelines and tanks typically falls within this range. In a water supply network, the VEGASON 61 can be installed in pressure - bearing pipes or storage tanks to accurately measure the water level while being exposed to the typical pressures associated with the water distribution system.
The VEGASON 61 has different protection ratings depending on the housing and application requirements. It can have protection ratings such as IP 66/IP 68 (0.2 bar), IP 66/IP 67, or IP 66/IP 68 (1 bar). An IP 66 rating means that the instrument is protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets from any direction. An IP 67 rating offers additional protection against temporary immersion in water up to a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. The IP 68 rating, with different pressure capabilities (0.2 bar or 1 bar), indicates that the sensor is suitable for continuous immersion in water at specific depths and pressures. These high - level protection ratings make the VEGASON 61 suitable for use in outdoor applications, in areas with high humidity, or in applications where it may be exposed to water splashing or immersion
