Advantages of VEGA PULS 69 Radar Level Gauges

• Non-contact radar level gauge: The instrument emits high-frequency microwave signals, which propagate through space from the antenna. When encountering the material surface, part of the signals is reflected back and received by the antenna. The instrument calculates the distance between the material surface and itself by measuring the time difference or frequency difference between the transmitted and received signals, and then derives the material level height.
• Guided wave radar level gauge: Radar pulses are transmitted along a cable or rod-shaped measuring probe, reflected at the medium surface, and returned to the level gauge along the probe. The built-in electronic components calculate the distance by measuring the propagation time of the pulses, thereby obtaining the level height.

• Precise measurement: Unaffected by steam, dust, noise, and material properties, it can provide accurate level measurement results under complex working conditions. For example, VEGAPULS 69 can stably and accurately measure in wood chip silos with dust and steam and strong adhesion.
• Wide application range: Capable of measuring various solid media, including fine powders, ash, dried sludge particles, waste glass fragments, various granules, or coarse solids. It can also be used in different types of storage equipment such as tall silos, large material sheds, and containers with partitions.
• Maintenance-free: Adopts non-contact measurement, with no wear issues, requiring no maintenance during operation, thus improving equipment utilization.
• Easy installation: Non-contact radar level gauges are usually installed on the top of containers without the need to enter the container interior, making installation simple; guided wave radar level gauges only require inserting the measuring probe into the container during installation.
• Strong signal processing capability: Equipped with powerful signal processing functions, it can effectively identify and process real echo signals, suppress false echoes and interference signals. For example, VEGAPULS 69 can effectively avoid false signals generated by the inclined wall of the silo bottom cone by adjusting the universal joint angle and utilizing its high focusing and small emission angle characteristics.

Main Models and Applications of VEGA Radar Level Gauges

• VEGAPULS 69: An all-round 80 GHz radar instrument with strong signal focusing capability. It can be equipped with a sealed plastic antenna or a built-in lens antenna with a metal flange, suitable for tall silos, large material sheds, and containers with partitions. It can measure all solid media and performs excellently in level measurement of wood chip silos in paper mills, for example.
