Page 7: Product Description
Open the VEGA Tools app and enter the serial number under "Documentation". Principle of operation Application area The VEGATOR 131 is a single channel controller for level detection conductive sensors of series EL. Via the integrated relay simple con- trol tasks can be solved. Typical applications are monitoring functions such as overfill or dry run protection, Optionally an additional second relay can be ordered. -

Page 9: Mounting
Mounting General instructions Mounting options VEGATOR 131 is designed for carrier rail mounting (top hat rail 35 x 7.5 according to DIN EN 50022/60715). Due to its protection rating of IP20, the instrument is suitable for mounting in switching cabinets. It can be mounted horizontally and vertically. -
Page 10: Connecting To Power Supply
Voltage supply The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data". Connection cable The voltage supply of VEGATOR 131 is connected with standard cable according to the national installation standards. The sensors are connected with standard two-wire cable without shielding. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, shielded cable should be used. -
