VEGAPULS 63

Description

The VEGAPULS 63 is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement of aggressive liquids or with hygienic requirements. It is suitable for applications in storage tanks, process vessels, dosing vessels and reactors. The encapsulated antenna system of VEGAPULS 63 protects the VEGAPULS 63 against pollution and ensures a maintenance-free permanent operation. The front-flush mounting ensures an optimum cleanability even with high hygienic requirements.

Your benefit

  • Exact measuring results independent of process conditions
  • High plant availability, because wear and maintenance-free
  • Maintenance-free operation through non-contact measuring principle

Application area

The front-flush mounting of the encapsulated antenna system ensures optimum cleaning even with strict hygienic requirements.

Level measurement of aggressive liquids under difficult process conditions – especially hygienic and chemically stable

The level indicator VEGAPULS 63 is ideal for level measurement in the chemical industry as well as in the food processing and pharmaceutical sector. The level indicator can be used wherever aggressive liquids are handled or rigorous hygiene is required in the process.
