Product
Controllers
-
Sensors gather measured values in a vessel and forward them to the controller. Through an adjustment in the controller, the measured values can be adapted to the specific conditions at the measuring point.

Radiometric Measuring Principle
WEIGHTRAC
-
In radiometric measurement, an isotope emits focussed gamma rays. The sensor on the opposite side of the conveyor belt receives the radiation.

Product
Indicating Instruments
-
In continuous level measurement, the filling height in a vessel is repeatedly detected. The measured value is further processed, e.g. as a 4 … 20 mA signal in a PLC or process control system. Indication of the measured value directly on site is also frequently requested.

Product
Vibration
VEGASWING, VEGAVIB, VEGAWAVE
-
In point level measurement with vibrating level switches, a rod or a fork is set vibrating. When the vibrating probe comes into contact with the medium, the vibration changes and the vibrating level switch outputs a switching command. Vibrating level switches are used as overfill protection devices or low-level indicators in liquids as well as in granular and powdery bulk solids.

Electronic Differential Pressure
-
An innovative software and hardware concept makes it possible to combine any two pressure transmitters of the VEGABAR 80 series into an electronic differential pressure system. Electronic differential pressure measurement is often used for filters, pumps and pipelines.

Interface Measurement
-
Interfaces, that is, boundaries between separation layers, can be found everywhere in the process industry, e.g. in the chemical or oil & gas industry. An interface arises when two media with different densities are filled into a container: for example, water and oil. To separate the two media from one another, it is necessary to determine where the transition from one medium to the other is located. VEGA sensors can be used to measure both the total level and the interface reliably.

Differential Pressure (Density)
VEGADIF
-
In density measurement of liquids with differential pressure, two pressure measuring points are mounted at a fixed distance from each other. There are thus two different pressures acting on the system. The differential pressure transducer calculates the density of the medium from the resulting pressure difference.

Product
Signal conditioning
-
Simple parameterization of the sensors and visualization of the measured values via the on-site display.

Electronic Differential Pressure
Density Measurement
-
An innovative software and hardware concept makes it possible to combine any two pressure transmitters of the VEGABAR 80 series into an electronic differential pressure system to measure density. Electronic differential pressure measurement is used for measuring density change and/or for compensation when the level needs to be measured.

Product
Hydrostatic Pressure
VEGABAR, VEGAWELL
-
The measuring cell of the pressure transducer detects minute changes in hydrostatic pressure, which increases or decreases depending on the filling level. The acting pressure is converted into an output signal by the integrated electronics.
-
Product
Conductive
VEGAKON, EL
-
When the electrodes of the conductive point level sensor come into contact with a conductive fluid, a small alternating current begins to flow.
-
Product
Ultrasonic
VEGASON
-
In non-contact ultrasonic level measurement, the sensor emits ultrasonic pulses in the direction of the medium, which then reflects them back.
-
Product
Overvoltage Protection Instruments
-
Safety devices designed to protect sensitive electrical equipment from voltage spikes, surges, or sustained excessive voltage.
-
Product
Microwave Barrier (Radar)
-
The microwave barrier functions like a light barrier: when the medium gets in the way of the microwave beam between the transmitter and the receiver, the signal is attenuated. This change is detected by the receiver and converted into a switching signal.
-
Product
Flow
-
In flow measurement, the amount of material that flows through a certain pipe cross section per time unit is measured.
