Application area

The VEGASON 61 is an ultrasonic sensor for continuous level measurement of liquids or bulk solids. Typical applications are the measurement of liquids in storage tanks or open basins. The sensor is also suitable for the detection of bulk solids in small vessels or open containers. The non-contact measuring principle is independent of product features and allows a setup without medium.

Advantages

§ Non-contact measurement

§ Reliable measurement independent of product features

§ Price-favourable solution for simple applications
