  • Page 9: Principle Of Operation

    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 emitted radar impulses of the radar sensor are electromagnetic waves. The polarisation is the direction of the electrical share. With radar sensors, the polarisation can be used to reduce the effect of false echoes considerably by turning the instrument in the connection flange or mounting boss. The position of the polarisation is marked on the instrument. VEGAPULS 61 • Foundation Fieldbus...
