3.2 Principle of operation

The VEGAFLEX 81 is a level sensor with cable or rod probe for

continuous level or interface measurement, suitable for applications

in liquids.

High frequency microwave pulses are guided along a steel cable or

a rod. Upon reaching the product surface, the microwave pulses are

reflected. The running time is evaluated by the instrument and output-

ted as level.
