.2 Principle of operation
VEGAFLEX
65
is a level sensor with pipe probe for continuous level
measurement.
I
t is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
can be used in liquids.
H
igh frequency microwave pulses are guided along a steel rope or a
rod. Upon reaching the product surface, the microwave pulses are
reflected. The running time is evaluated by the instrument and
outputted as distance.
4 … 20
mA/HART two-wire electronics for voltage supply and
measured value transmission on the same cable.
T
he supply voltage range can differ depending on the instrument
version.
T
he data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
T
he optional background lighting of the indicating 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".
T
he optional heating requires its own operating voltage. You can find
details in the supplementary instructions manual "Heating for indicat-
ing and adjustment module".
T
his function is generally not available for approved instruments.

W
ith indicating and adjustment module
l
with the suitable VEGA DTM in conjunction with an adjustment
software according to the FDT/DTM standard, e.g. PACTware and
PC
l
with manufacturer-specific adjustment programs AMS™ or PDM
