VEGAPULS 63 • 4 ... 20 mA/HART two-wire
Instructions for orientation:
Note marking of the polarisation plane on the sensor
With threaded fitting, the marking is on the hexagon, with flange
connection between the two flange holes
The pipe connections to the vessel must be in one plane with this
marking
Instructions for the measurement:
The 100 % point must not be above the upper tube connection to
the vessel
The 0 % point must not be below the lower tube connection to the
vessel
Min. distance sensor reference plane to the upper edge upper
tube connection > 300 mm
For the parameter adjustment, select "Application standpipe" and
enter the tube diameter to compensate errors due to running time
shift
A false signal suppression with integrated sensor is recommended
but not mandatory
The measurement through a ball valve with complete run is pos-
sible
Constructional requirements on the bypass pipe:
Material metal, smoother inner tube
In case of an extremely rough tube inner surface, use an inserted
tube (tube in tube) or a radar sensor with tube antenna
Flanges are welded to the tube according to the orientation of the
polarisation level
Gap size with junctions ≤ 0.1 mm, for example, when using a ball
valve or intermediate flanges with single pipe sections
The antenna diameter of the sensor should correspond to the
inner diameter of the tube
Diameter should be constant over the complete length
