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.

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.

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

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.

Level Measurement
-
In continuous level measurement, the level of a medium in a tank or silo is detected with the help of different measuring methods and converted into an electronic signal. The level signal is either displayed directly on site or incorporated into a process control or management system.

Differential Pressure (Flow)
VEGADIF
-
In flow-rate measurement via differential pressure measurement, the differential pressure is measured with the help of a differential pressure device, e.g. an orifice plate or a dynamic pressure probe (pitot tube). The differential pressure transducer calculates the flow rate from the measured value provided by differential pressure system. Thanks to the finely graduated ranges of the measuring cells and the minimal measurement deviation, very accurate flow-rate measurement can be realized.

Capacitive Level Switches
VEGACAP, VEGAPOINT
-
In capacitive point level detection, the sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. Any capacitance change caused by a level change is converted into a switching signal. Thanks to the shortenable cable and rod versions, level switches can be perfectly adapted to any application. They are often used for overfill or dry run protection as well as oil/water or foam detection.
