Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. With a tuning fork of only 40 mm length, VEGASWING 51 can be also mounted, e.g. in pipelines from DN 25. The small tuning fork...
This change is detected by the integrated oscillator and converted into a switching command. VEGASWING 51 is a compact instrument, i.e. it can be Supply operated without external evaluation system. The integrated electronics evaluates the level signal and outputs a switching signal.

Welded socket VEGASWING 51 has a defined thread runout point. This means that every VEGASWING 51 is in the same position after being screwed in. Remove therefore the supplied flat seal from the thread of VEGASWING 51. This flat seal is not required when using a welded socket with front-flush O-ring.

Mounting To minimise flow resistance caused by the tuning fork, Flows VEGASWING 51 should be mounted in such a way that the surfaces of the blades are parallel to the product movement. VEGASWING 51 - - contactless electronic switch...
Generally note the following safety instructions: Note safety instructions Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage VEGASWING 51 is connected with standard cable with round Selecting connection cable cross section. Depending on the plug connection, you have to select the outer diameter of the cable respectively so that the seal effect of the cable gland is ensured.
