VEGASON 62
Ultrasonic sensor for continuous level measurement
Measures liquids up to 8 m and bulk solids up to 3.5 m away
Application area
Extensive selection of electronics, housings, approvals. Process fittings: G2 or 2 NPT
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.
