Principle of operation

VEGAMIP 61 is a microwave barrier for level detection.
It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
can be used in bulk solids and liquids.
Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. With an operat-
ing distance of 100 m, VEGAMIP 61 can be used, for example, in bulk
solids silos with large diameters. Thanks to its simple and rugged
measuring system, VEGAMIP 61 is virtually unaffected by the process
and the chemical and physical properties of the medium.
