VEGAPULS C 23

Wired radar sensor for continuous level measurement

For standard measuring tasks, IP66/IP68, Type 6P

Application area

Axial cable outlet, measuring range up to 30 m, accuracy ±2 mm, 4 … 20 mA, HART, SDI-12 or Modbus output, Ex-approval optional

VEGAPULS C 23 is the ideal sensor for non-contact level measurement in simple applications where a high degree of protection is required. It is particularly suitable for use in water treatment, pumping stations and rain overflow basins, for flow measurement in open channels and level monitoring. In bulk solids, the sensors are used in medium-sized bulk solids silos, segmented vessels or open heaps.

Your benefit

  • Exact measurement results independent of medium, process and environmental conditions
  • Unaffected by vessel installations due to very good signal focusing
  • Maintenance-free operation due to non-contact 80 GHz radar technology
