  • Page 13 To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is closed during operation and locked, if necessary. Caution: Transport Do not hold VEGASWING 63 on the tuning fork. Particularly with flange or tube versions, the tuning fork can be damaged just by the weight of the instrument. Transport coated instruments very carefully and avoid touching the tuning fork.

  • Page 14: Mounting Instructions

    Mounting instructions Welded socket VEGASWING 63 has a defined thread starting point. This means that every VEGASWING 63 is in the same fork position after being screwed in. Remove therefore the supplied seal from the thread of VEGASWING 63. This seal is not required when using a welded socket with O-ring in front.
  • Page 15 VEGASWING 63 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. This applies particularly to instrument types with long extension tube. Fig. 7: Inflowing medium Product flow To make sure the tuning fork of VEGASWING 63 generates as little resistance as possible to product flow, mount the sensor so that the surfaces are parallel to the product movement. Agitators Due to the effects of agitators, equipment vibration or similar, the level switch can be subjected to strong lateral forces.
  • Page 16 See " Technical data". Caution: If it is determined (e.g. via a fault signal from VEGASWING 63) that medium has already penetrated into the vibrating element, the instru- ment must be exchanged immediately.

  • Page 17: Connecting To Power Supply

    Connect the voltage supply according to the following diagrams. Take note of the general installation regulations. As a rule, connect VEGASWING 63 to vessel ground (PA), or in case of plastic vessels, to the next ground potential. On the side of the instrument housing there is a ground terminal between the cable entries.
