.2 Principle of operation

VEGAWELL

72

is used for level and gauge measurement in

wells, basins and atmospherically open vessels particularly in
the water/waste water industry as well as in the shipbuilding
industry.

1)

T

he actual sensor element is the CERTEC

®

measuring cell

with rugged ceramic diaphragm. The hydrostatic pressure
causes a capacitance change in the measuring cell via the
ceramic diaphragm. This change is converted into an
appropriate output signal.

T

he CERTEC

®

measuring cell is also equipped with a

temperature sensor Pt 100 in four-wire technology. The
resistance value is accessed via the wires of the suspension
cable. The power supply or the processing is carried out via a
temperature transducer, e.g. in the VEGABOX 02.

T

wo-wire electronics 4 … 20 mA/HART for power supply and

measured value transmission over the same cable.

T

he supply voltage range can differ depending on the

instrument version.

D

ata for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical

data".

.3 Operation

VEGAWELL

72 - 4 … 20

mA/HART can be adjusted with

different adjustment media:

l

an adjustment software according to FDT/DTM standard,
e.g. PACTware and PC

l

W

ith a HART handheld

T

he type of adjustment and the adjustment options depend on

the selected adjustment component. The entered parameters
are generally saved in the respective sensor, when adjusting
with PACTware™ and PC optionally also in the PC.

.4 Packaging, transport and storage

Y

our instrument was protected by packaging during transport.

I

ts capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured

by a test according to DIN EN 24180.
