3.2 Principle of operation

VEGASON 66 is an ultrasonic sensor for continuous level

measurement. It is particularly suitable for solids, but also good

for liquids.
The transducer of the ultrasonic sensor transmits short

ultrasonic pulses to the measured product. These pulses are

reflected by product surface and received again by the

rtansducer as echoes. The running time of the ultrasonic

pulases from emission to reception is proportional to the

distance and hence the level. The determined level is

converted into an appropriate output signal and outputted as

measured value.
Four-wire electronics with separate power supply.
The supply voltage range can differ depending on the

instrument version. The exact range is stated in the "Technical

data" in the "Supplement".
Measured value transmission is carried out via the 4 … 20 mA/

HART output separate from power supply.
