Alternatively, you can access the data via your smartphone: • Download the VEGA Tools app from the " Apple App Store" or the " Google Play Store" • Scan the DataMatrix code on the type label of the instrument or • Enter the serial number manually in the app...
  • Page 7: Mounting

    You can find drawings of these mounting options in chapter " Dimen- sions". Fig. 2: Flange mounting of the radar sensor Mounting strap Mounting strap The mounting strap enables simple mounting on the vessel wall or silo top. It is suitable for wall, ceiling or boom mounting. Especially in open vessels this is a very easy and effective way to align the sensor to the bulk solid surface. VEGAPULS 67 • HART and accumulator pack...

  • Page 14 With the adjustment software PACTware and a PC, a high resolution echo curve can be displayed and used to recognize signal changes during operation. In addition, the echo curve of setup can be dis- played in the echo curve window and compared with the current echo curve. Additional settings - False The following circumstances cause interfering reflections and can signal suppression influence the measurement: • High mounting nozzles • Vessel internals such as struts VEGAPULS 67 • HART and accumulator pack...
  • Page 15 This is useful if a false signal suppression was carried out with too high a level and not all false signals could be detected. When selecting " Extend", the distance to the medium surface of the created false signal suppression is displayed. This value can now be changed and the false signal suppression can be extended to this range. VEGAPULS 67 • HART and accumulator pack...
