2.1 Type survey
VEGASON series 54 … 56 sensors are a
newly developed generation of extremely
compact ultrasonic sensors for large measur-
ing ranges. VEGASON 51 … 53 are used for
shorter measuring ranges.
Due to the small housing dimensions and
process fittings, the compact sensors do
your level monitoring inconspicuously, and
above all, at reasonable cost. Swivelling
holders allow a quick alignment of the trans-
ducer to the product and solid surface.
Mounting is simplified by the option of sepa-
rating the sensor electronics from the trans-
ducer. The sensor electronics can be
mounted at a distance of 300 m from the
transducer. It is then possible to mount the
transducer in environments with an ambient
temperature up to 150°C (VEGASON 56).
Common features
