3.2 Principle of operation
VEGACAL 62 is a level sensor for continuous level measurement in all
areas of industry.
The partly insulated probe is designed for measurement of bulk solids
and can be also used in non-conductive liquids such as for example
oil.
The proven mechanical construction offers high functional safety.
Probe, measured product and vessel wall form an electrical capacitor.
The capacitance is influenced by three main factors.
