VEGAPULS 6X THE RADAR LEVEL SENSOR for continuous level measurement of liquids and bulk solids

Application area

Your benefit

• Exact measuring results independent of process conditions
• Maintenance-free operation through non-contact measuring principle
• Application-oriented configuration enables a simple device selection

THREE INTRINSIC VALUES: ACCURACY, RELIABILITY AND EASE OF USE.

Admittedly, at first glance you can’t tell what’s inside the new VEGAPULS 6X radar sensor: A high-precision level instrument that doesn’t care if its measuring liquids or bulk solids.
The new radar level sensor VEGAPULS 6X now combines the best of the previous 80 GHz, 26 GHz and 6 GHz sensors, such as VEGAPULS 64 and VEGAPULS 69, in one device.

IT security standard IEC 62443-4-2

In view of the increasing digitalisation in industry, an extremely important point is effective protection against cyber attacks. That’s why we’ve designed-in the latest IT security standard IEC 62443-4-2 into VEGAPULS 6X. It means that this sensor also meets the highest cyber-security standards currently established in the process industry.

Safety and reliability under all process conditions

No matter whether VEGAPULS 6X is operating under high temperatures or high pressure, in applications with dust, hot steam or extreme noise, it always delivers precise measuring results. This is due to its robust construction – using high-quality materials and encapsulated electronics, to optimally protect against external influences – as well as passing stringent quality tests that each and every sensor undergoes.

Risk minimisation according to SIL (IEC 61508)

Equipped with SIL 2/3, VEGAPULS 6X meets the strict, internationally standardised safety requirements that serve to protect health, the environment and products during process operations. It achieves excellent performance figures. In short: This sensor reduces safety risks and protects your system over the long term.
