3.2 Principle of operation
The VEGABAR 82 slave sensor is combined with a sensor from the
VEGABAR 80 series for electronic differential pressure measurement.
The sensors are connected via a screened four-wire cable. The
measured value from the slave sensor is read in and factored into the
calculations. Parameter adjustment is carried out through the master
sensor.
The electronic differential pressure measurement is suitable for the
measurement of the following process variables:
•
Level
•
Flow
•
Differential pressure
•
Density
•
Interface

used for the measurement of the following pressure types.
•
Gauge pressure
