Radar sensor - the specialist for water management
Level measurement of water and sewage
The radar sensor VEGAPULS WL 61 was developed especially for use in water
and sewage management. Compared with ultrasonic technology, which is
commonly used in the area of water/sewage, radar measurement offers many
advantages. For one thing, radar gauges operate completely independent of
wind movements, fog or rain. And thanks to its high measuring
sensitivity, the radar sensor really brings its advantages to bear under
conditions of light foam generation. Because of its resistance to
temperature influences, the radar sensor is fundamentally more accurate
than ultrasonic devices when it comes to flow-rate measurement in rivers,
canals or open flumes.
Area of application
The new radar sensor VEGAPULS WL 61 covers the many areas of application
in water management: the application spectrum of this gauge specialized
in water and sewage measurement extends from level measurement in pump
shafts or in rain overflow basins to flow-rate measurement in open
flumes right up to level measurement of rivers and lakes.
Advantages
VEGAPULS WL 61 offers simple, reliable continuous level measurement of
water and sewage:
- Non-contact measurement
- Simple installation
- Wear and maintenance-free
- Independent of temperature, weather influences as well as foam
generation
- High measuring precision

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.
