VEGAPULS C 21 VEGA Radar Sensor for Continuous Level Measurement

Modbus and Levelmaster protocol

Radar sensor for continuous level measurement

Application area

The VEGAPULS C 21 is the ideal radar sensor for non-contact level measurement with high accuracy requirements in all standard applications where a high degree of protection is required.

It is particularly suitable for level measurement in water treatment, in pumping stations and rain overflow basins, for flow measurement in open channels, for level monitoring and for many other industrial areas.

The sensor is suitable both for measuring liquids and for use on small bulk solids silos or bulk solids containers. 

Your benefit

• Maintenance-free operation due to non-contact 80 GHz radar technology

• Exact measurement results independent of medium properties and

process conditions

• High accuracy and universal measuring range. Maintenance-free

operation due to non-contact measuring principle

Function

The device emits a continuous radar signal through its antenna which is modulated in its frequency. The emitted signal is reflected by the medium and received by the antenna as an echo.

The frequency difference between the emitted and received signal is proportional to the distance and depends on the filling height. The determined filling height is converted into a respective output signal and output as measured value.
