VEGACAL 62

VEGACAL 62

Capacitive rod electrode for continuous level measurement

Application area
VEGACAL 62 is a level sensor for continuous level measurement in all areas of industry. Partly insulated probes such as VEGACAL 62 are preferably used in bulk solids. However, the probe can also be used in non-conductive liquids such as e.g. oil.

Advantages
Service-proven, robust and maintenance-free
High reliability
Simple mounting and setup
Measurement along the complete probe length
Probe can be shortened

Function
Sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. A level change causes a capacitance change which is converted into a continuous output signal by the connected processing electronics.

Version with partly insulated rod
Process fitting from G¾ A
Process temperature -50 … +200 °C
Process pressure -1 … +64 bar
(-100 … +6400 kPa)
