    Principle of operation Application area The VEGAPULS 61 is a radar sensor for continuous level measure- ment of liquids under simple process conditions. The instrument is ideal also for all applications in the water and waste water industry. It is particularly suitable for level measurement in water treatment, in pump stations as well as storm water overflow tanks, for flow measurement in open flumes and for gauge measurement.

The polarisation is the direction of the electrical wave compo- nent. By turning the instrument in the connection flange or mounting boss, the polarisation can be used to reduce the effects of false echoes. The position of the polarisation is marked on the process fitting of the instrument. VEGAPULS 61 • Foundation Fieldbus...
