VEGAPULS 66
Radar sensor - turbulent surfaces under control
Level measurement of liquids - even with strongly agitated media
The radar sensor VEGAPULS 66 is the radar instrument of choice when the
level of a turbulent liquid has to be measured: it delivers reliable,
exact measuring results in spite of foam, buildup or condensate. Even if
the medium is in violent motion, as is often the case in industrial
processes, the level measuring probe transmits the level unfazed. The
instrument can even withstand fluctuating pressures up to 160 bar and
temperatures between -60° and +400° C.
Area of application
The areas of application for VEGAPULS 66, the radar level sensor that can
handle the toughest process conditions, are primarily in the chemical
industry, in environment and recycling technology and in the
petrochemical sector. The non-contact instrument is used just as
effectively in steam drums for process heat production as in mud pits,
where mud is processed as a coolant for drilling and as a sealant for
sealing boreholes in oil and gas fields.
Advantages
VEGAPULS 66 is the instrument for measuring the levels of turbulent
liquid media with extremely agitated surfaces:
- Non-contact measurement at high pressures and temperatures
- Simple installation
- Wear and maintenance free
- Independent of pressure and pressure fluctuations, temperature, gas,
vapour, buildup, vessel pollution

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.
