VEGACAL series 60: Level measurement in solids and liquids
Measuring principle
The proven capacitive measuring principle is one of the most common measuring principles for level measurement in the industrial measurement technology. Sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. A capacitance change caused by a level change is processed by the integrated electronics and converted into a switching signal. The level measurement is carried out via the complete sensor length without a dead zone. Thanks to cable and rod versions, suitable instruments are available for all applications.

Applications in liquids
Mainly fully insulated instrument versions are used in these applications. Hence measurements of corrosive liquids or adhesive products are no problem. The mounting of the instruments is easy and the rugged construction is the basis for an interference and maintenance free operation.
Applications in bulk solids
Partly insulated versions are preferably used in bulk solids. Also here, we have the proven, rugged configuration as basis for the manifold and reliable use, e.g. in the aggregates and mining industry.
