3.2 Principle of operation
VEGAMET 391 mit SIL-Qualifikation is a universal signal conditioning
instrument for a variety of applications such as level, gauge and pro-
cess pressure measurement. At the same time, it can serve as power
supply unit for connected sensors. VEGAMET 391 mit SIL-Qualifika-
tion is designed for connection of any 4 … 20 mA sensor.
Due to the SIL qualification, the instrument can be used in a safety-
relevant protective function. With single channel architectur, SIL2 is
reached, with multiple channel, diversitary architecture, SIL3. Take
note of the specifications and requirements of the "Safety Manual".
The VEGAMET 391 mit SIL-Qualifikation signal conditioning instru-
ment can power the connected sensor and process its measurement
signals. The requested parameter is shown on the display and also
outputted to the integrated current output for further processing. The
measurement signal can thus be transferred to a remote indication or
a superordinate control system. Operating relays for control of pumps
or other devices are also integrated.
Wide-range power supply unit with 20 … 253 V AC/DC for world-wide
use.
Detailed information about the power supply can be found in chapter
"Technical data".
