Product Description

VEGAPULS 63

Radar sensor for continuous level measurement of liquids

For aggressive liquids or under hygienic requirements

Application area

The front-flush mounting of the encapsulated antenna system ensures optimum cleaning even with strict hygienic requirements.

The VEGAPULS 63 is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement of aggressive liquids or with hygienic requirements. It is suitable for applications in storage tanks, process vessels, dosing vessels and reactors. The encapsulated antenna system of VEGAPULS 63 protects the VEGAPULS 63 against pollution and ensures a maintenance-free permanent operation. The front-flush mounting ensures an optimum cleanability even with high hygienic requirements.

Your benefit
