VEGAPULS SR 68
Radar sensor - a tough instrument for tough environments
Level measurement of bulk solids
Bulk solids, which vary widely in their density, form and features,
confront the measuring instruments in industrial production processes
with widely different challenges: powders often generate huge clouds of
dust, while coarse, heavy bulk solids cause tremors and noise when being
filled into a container from a great height. With VEGAPULS SR 68, level
measurement in bulk solids is largely independent of process conditions.
Due to optimized VEGA radar technology, the sensor can evaluate signals
1,000 times smaller than those conventional radar instruments can pick
up. This high sensitivity allows a measuring range of up to 30 m even in
products with bad reflective properties.
Area of application
VEGAPULS SR 68, the level specialist for extreme bulk solids
applications, fulfils all requirements for precise, reliable level
detection of bulk solids in high-temperature or dusty environments such
as coaling stations in power plants or storage facilities for building
materials like clinker or cement.
Because of these advantages, the robust VEGAPULS SR 68 is highly valued
especially in the steel industry, in the building sector, in plastics
processing as well as in the food industry and in the chemical and
pharmaceutical sector.
Advantages
VEGAPULS SR 68 is completely unaffected by dust, temperature, pressure,
concussions or filling noise:
- Non-contact measurement
- Measuring range up to 30 m
- High measuring precision
- Simple installation
- SIL qualified

Device Support File Usage
FieldComm Group (FCG) makes available to its members and to the public certain device driver (DD) files, in various forms, that have passed certain tests conducted by or through FCG. The DD files are, or are created from, submissions to FCG by FCG members and are provided by FCG AS IS. FCG disclaims all liability for the accuracy, suitability or use of the DD files. Each member creating DD files has its own policies regarding supporting use of those files, and may, for instance support use of DD object code files, but not DeviceInfo or other files. While FCG is under no obligation to provide support for use of any DD files, FCG welcomes all inquiries on the subject and will often be able to assist.
