Page 10: Principle Of Operation
VEGAPULS 66 is a radar sensor in C-band (emitting frequency ap- prox. 6 GHz) for continuous level measurement. A special version of VEGAPULS 66 is available for each area of ap- plication. The version with flange and standpipe is particularly suitable for the measurement of solvents and liquid gases. -
