3.2 Principle of operation
VEGAPULS 62 is a radar sensor in K-band (emitting frequency
approx. 26 GHz) for continuous level measurement.
A suitable version of VEGAPULS 62 is available for each area of
application:
The version with "thread and horn antenna with ø 40 mm (1.575 in)"
is particularly suitable for small tanks and process vessels for
measurement of virtually all products.
The version with "Flange and horn antenna with ø 48 … 95 mm
(1.89 … 3.74 in)" is particularly suitable for storage tanks and process
vessels, for measurement of products such as solvents, hydrocarbons
and fuels under most difficult process conditions.
The version with "Parabolic antenna" is particularly suitable for
precise measurement of products with small dielectric figure.
The electronics version "Increased sensitivity" enables the use of
VEGAPULS
62 also in applications with very poor reflective properties
or products with low e
r
value.
