Product
Flow
-
In flow measurement, the amount of material that flows through a certain pipe cross section per time unit is measured.

Product
Guided Wave Radar (GWR)
VEGAFLEX
-
In level measurement with guided wave radar, microwave pulses are conducted along a cable or rod probe and reflected by the product surface. The measuring probe of the TDR sensor ensures that the signal reaches the medium undisturbed. Liquids, bulk solids and separation layers (interfaces) in liquids are commonly measured with this measuring technique.

Product
Pressure
-
Pressure transmitters measure process pressures as well as the levels of liquids, gases and vapours.

Product
Overvoltage Protection Instruments
-
Safety devices designed to protect sensitive electrical equipment from voltage spikes, surges, or sustained excessive voltage.

Product
Radiation-Based
PROTRAC
-
Radiometric point level detection operates with a radioactive source that emits focussed gamma radiation. The radiation is picked up by a detector on the opposite side of the vessel. When the gamma rays are blocked by the medium, the detector receives little or no radiation. The intensity changes of the incoming radiation are forwarded as signals by a relay.

Product
Software
-
Computer programs, algorithms, and digital logic (FPGA) used to manipulate, filter, and analyze signals after analog-to-digital conversion.

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

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
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
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.
-
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
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.
