10 VEGAPULS 56K
22915-EN-041227
2 Types and versions
VEGAPULS 56 are a newly developed gen-
eration of very compact high temperature
radar sensors. For the first time it is now
possible to carry out a non-contact level
measurement under high temperatures and
pressures. They bring the benefits of radar
level measurement to applications where
previously, due to extreme process condi-
tions, the special special advantages of ra-
dar had to be forgone.
VEGAPULS 56 radar sensors are perfectly
adapted to two-wire technology. They trans-
mit the supply voltage and the output signal
via one two-wire cable. An analogue
4 … 20 mA output signal is available as out-
put or measuring signal.
