83 Product descriptionVEGAFLEX 83 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire41834-EN-120726The instrument and the electronics version can be determined via theproduct code on the type label as well as on the electronics.• Standard electronics: Type FX80H.-The scope of delivery encompasses:• Sensor• Documentation– this operating instructions manual– Test certificate measuring accuracy (optional)– Operating instructions manual "Indicating and adjustmentmodule" (optional)– Supplementary instructions "GSM/GPRS radio module"(optional)– Supplementary instructions manual "Heating for indicating andadjustment module" (optional)– Supplementary instructions manual "Plug connector for con-tinuously measuring sensors" (optional)– Ex-specific "Safety instructions" (with Ex versions)– CE declarations of conformity– if necessary, further certificates3.2 Principle of operationThe VEGAFLEX 83 is a level sensor with coated cable or rod probefor continuous level or interface measurement, particularly suitable forapplications in the chemical industry.High frequency microwave pulses are guided along a steel rope ora rod. Upon reaching the product surface, the microwave pulses arereflected. The running time is evaluated by the instrument and output-ted as level.High frequency microwave impulses are guided along a steel cableor rod. When reaching the product surface, a part of the microwaveimpulses is reflected. The other part passes the upper product and isreflected a second time by the interface. The running times to the twoproduct layers are processed by the instrument.VersionsScope of deliveryApplication areaFunctional principle -level measurementFunctional principle - in-terface measurement
