3 Product description
VEGASON 62 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire
28776-EN-130417
The transducer of the ultrasonic sensor transmits short ultrasonic
pulses to the measured product. These pulses are reflected by
product surface and received back by the transducer as echoes.
The running time of the ultrasonic pulses 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.
4 … 20 mA/HART two-wire electronics for voltage supply and meas-
ured value transmission on the same cable.
The supply voltage range can differ depending on the instrument
version.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
The optional background lighting of the display and adjustment
module is powered by the sensor. A certain level of operating voltage
is required for this. You can find the exact voltage specifications in
chapter "Technical data".
The optional heating requires its own operating voltage. You can find
details in the supplementary instructions manual "Heating for display
and adjustment module".
This function is generally not available for approved instruments.
3.3 Operation
The instrument can be adjusted with the following adjustment media:
•
With the display and adjustment module
•
with the suitable VEGA DTM in conjunction with an adjustment
software according to the FDT/DTM standard, e.g. PACTware and
PC
•
with manufacturer-specific adjustment programs AMS™ or PDM
•
With a HART handheld
3.4 Packaging, transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
based on ISO 4180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environment-
friendly, recyclable cardboard. For special versions, PE foam or PE
foil is also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised
recycling companies.
Transport must be carried out under consideration of the notes on the
transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause
damage to the device.
The delivery must be checked for completeness and possible transit
damage immediately at receipt. Ascertained transit damage or con-
cealed defects must be appropriately dealt with.
