3.2 Principle of operationVEGASON 63 is an ultrasonic sensor for continuous levelmeasurement. It is suitable for liquids and solids in practicallyall industries.The transducer of the ultrasonic sensor transmits shortultrasonic pulses to the measured product. These pulses arereflected by product surface and received again by thertansducer as echoes. The running time of the ultrasonicpulases from emission to reception is proportional to thedistance and hence the level. The determined level isconverted into an appropriate output signal and outputted asmeasured value.Two-wire electronics 4 … 20 mA/HART for power supply andmeasured value transmission over the same cable.The supply voltage range can differ depending on theinstrument version.The data for power supply are stated in chapter "Technicaldata" in the "Supplement".The backlight of the indicating and adjustment module ispowered by the sensor. The prerequisite for this is a supplyvoltage at a certain level. The exact voltage specifications arestated in chapter "Technical data" in the "Supplement".This function is available for instruments with nationalapprovals such as e.g. according to FM or CSA only at a laterdate.The optional heating requires its own power supply. You canfind further details in the supplementary instructions manual"Heating for indicating and adjustment module".This function is generally not available for approved instru-ments.3.3 OperationVEGASON 63 can be adjusted with different adjustmentmedia:l with indicating and adjustment modulel with the suitable VEGA DTM in conjunction with anadjustment software according to the FDT/DTM standard,e.g. PACTware™ and PCl with manufacturer-specific adjustment programs AMS™ orArea of applicationFunctional principleSupplyVEGASON 63 - 4 ... 20 mA/HART 11Product description28777-EN-070507
