VEGAPULS 69 Radar Sensor for Continuous Level Measurement
$1,500.00
The VEGAPULS 69 Radar Sensor is designed for accurate and reliable continuous level measurement of bulk solids. It uses radar (microwave) technology to measure levels in challenging applications, such as storage silos, bunkers, and bins, without being affected by dust, temperature, or material characteristics.
This radar sensor provides non-contact measurement, ensuring minimal maintenance and long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments, including mining, cement, and chemical industries.
Not Recommended For:
• Liquid level measurement
• Environments with extreme temperature and pressure conditions (beyond sensor’s specifications)
Selection Notes
• Measurement Principle: Uses radar (microwave) technology for non-contact level measurement of bulk solids.
• Application Type: Suitable for bulk solids, including sand, cement, coal, and gravel.
• Environmental Conditions: Designed to perform reliably in dusty environments with minimal maintenance.
• Installation: Typically mounted at the top of silos, bins, or bunkers for direct level measurement.
• Communication and Output: Supports 4–20 mA, HART, and digital communication for system integration.
Why Choose the VEGAPULS 69
• Non-Contact Radar Measurement
The VEGAPULS 69 uses microwave radar to measure level without physical contact with the material. As a result, it eliminates wear and reduces maintenance.
• Reliable in Dusty and Harsh Environments
Its radar technology allows it to perform reliably in challenging conditions like dust, high humidity, and extreme temperatures.
• High Accuracy and Stability
The radar sensor provides precise measurements regardless of material changes, ensuring consistent data for process control.
• Simple Setup and Configuration
The device is easy to install and configure for a wide range of bulk solids applications.
• Durable and Low Maintenance
Designed for industrial use, it has minimal moving parts, reducing the risk of breakdowns and extending its service life.
