    Safety Manual "Functional safety (SIL)" (optional) Supplementary instructions manual "Plug connector for level sensors" (optional) Ex-specific "Safety instructions" (with Ex versions) if necessary, further certificates The VEGASWING 61 consists of the components: Constituent parts Housing cover Housing with electronics Process fitting with tuning fork Fig.

  • Page 8: Principle Of Operation

    Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. With a tuning fork of only 40 mm length, VEGASWING 61 can be also mounted e.g. in pipelines from DN 32. The small tuning fork allows use in vessels, tanks and pipes.

  • Page 9: Operation

    3 Product description 3.3 Operation The switching condition of VEGASWING 61 with plastic housing can be checked when the housing is closed (signal lamp). With the basic setting, products with a density > 0.7 g/cm³ (0.025 lbs/in³) can be detected. The instrument can be adapted if products with lower density are to be measured.

  • Page 10: Mounting

    You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the type label. In general, VEGASWING 61 can be installed in any position. The Switching point instrument only has to be mounted in such a way that the tuning fork is at the height of the desired switching point.

    Fig. 6: Measures against moisture penetration Transport Caution: Do not hold VEGASWING 61 on the tuning fork. Particularly with flange or tube versions, the tuning fork can be damaged just by the weight of the instrument. Transport coated instruments very carefully and avoid touching the tuning fork.
  • Page 14 If VEGASWING 61 is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false Inflowing medium measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount VEGASWING 61 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e. g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. Flows To minimise flow resistance caused by the tuning fork, VEGASWING...
  • Page 15 See "Technical data". Caution: If it is determined (e.g. by an error message of VEGASWING 61) that medium has already penetrated into the vibrating element, the instrument must be exchanged immediately.

    Voltage supply Take note of the general installation regulations. As a rule, connect VEGASWING 61 to vessel ground (PA), or in case of plastic vessels, to the next ground potential. On the side of the instrument housing there is a ground terminal between the cable entries. This connection serves to drain off...
