Characteristic
Extensive selection of electronics, housings, approvals. Process fittings: G2 or 2 NPT
Application
The VEGASON 62 is an ultrasonic sensor for continuous level measurement of liquids and bulk solids. Typical applications are the measurement of liquids in storage vessels or open basins. The sensor is also suitable for the detection of bulk solids in small vessels or silos. Application areas can be found in all industries. The non-contact measuring principle is unaffected by product features and allows a setup without medium.
For this instrument, new radar sensors with connection housing VEGAPULS 11, 21 or 31, or radar sensors with fixed connected cable VEGAPULS C 11, C 21, C 22 or C 23 are available as alternative.
Benefits
- Price-favourable solution for simple applications
- Maintenance-free operation through non-contact measuring principle
- Reliable measurement independent of product features
