Wireless Communication
-
The wireless communication devices are used when measured values have to be transferred from remote monitoring stations or mobile tanks to data collection centers. They also enable wireless remote diagnostics and maintenance of the connected sensors.

Level Switches
-
In point level detection, a point level switch detects when a certain predefined level is reached. Such a device is employed when it is not necessary to measure every possible intermediate level, as is the case with continuous level measurement. A switching command starts or stops filling equipment such as conveyors or pumps. Point level switches outputting a binary signal can be integrated into a process control system.

Product
Guided Wave Radar
-
A top-down, direct sensing technology that uses low-energy microwave pulses sent down a probe to accurately detect the boundary between two immiscible liquids.

Radar
VEGAPULS
-
In continuous non-contact level measurement with radar, the sensor sends microwave signals towards the medium from above. The surface of the medium reflects the signals back in the direction of the sensor. Using the received microwave signals, the sensor determines the distance to the product surface and calculates the level from it.

Product
Ultrasonic
VEGASON
-
In non-contact ultrasonic level measurement, the sensor emits ultrasonic pulses in the direction of the medium, which then reflects them back.

Product
Hydrostatic Pressure
VEGABAR, VEGAWELL
-
The measuring cell of the pressure transducer detects minute changes in hydrostatic pressure, which increases or decreases depending on the filling level. The acting pressure is converted into an output signal by the integrated electronics.

Level Measurement
-
In continuous level measurement, the level of a medium in a tank or silo is detected with the help of different measuring methods and converted into an electronic signal. The level signal is either displayed directly on site or incorporated into a process control or management system.

Product
Overvoltage Protection Instruments
-
Safety devices designed to protect sensitive electrical equipment from voltage spikes, surges, or sustained excessive voltage.
-
Product
Differential Pressure
-
In differential pressure measurement, different pressures act on an oil-filled, pressure difference measuring cell from two sides. The instrument converts the pressure differential into an electronic signal.

Product
Interface Measurement
-
Interfaces, that is, boundaries between separation layers, can be found everywhere in the process industry, e.g. in the chemical or oil & gas industry. An interface arises when two media with different densities are filled into a container: for example, water and oil. To separate the two media from one another, it is necessary to determine where the transition from one medium to the other is located. VEGA sensors can be used to measure both the total level and the interface reliably.

Components
-
Electronic devices and circuits that manipulate, transform, and refine sensor signals to make them suitable for measurement, recording, or control systems.

-
Product
Software
-
Computer programs, algorithms, and digital logic (FPGA) used to manipulate, filter, and analyze signals after analog-to-digital conversion.

Radiometric Measuring Principle
WEIGHTRAC
-
In radiometric measurement, an isotope emits focussed gamma rays. The sensor on the opposite side of the conveyor belt receives the radiation.

Product
Microwave Barrier (Radar)
-
The microwave barrier functions like a light barrier: when the medium gets in the way of the microwave beam between the transmitter and the receiver, the signal is attenuated. This change is detected by the receiver and converted into a switching signal.
