VEGAMET 861 • 4 … 20 mA/HART
58866-EN-200401
The controller VEGAMET 861 is specialized in the processing and
clear reproduction of process states. A generous display for data
visualization is already integrated in the compact housing designed
for harsh field conditions. During operation, the device feeds the con
-
nected digital or analogue 4 … 20 mA/HART sensor.
With the VEGAMET 861 limit values can be safely monitored and
relays, such as an overfill protection according to WHG, can be
switched. The equipment includes functions for adjustment and
pump control, which allow a wide range of individual adaptations. The
VEGAMET 861 is suitable for all industrial sectors, including chemi-
cals, building materials, water and waste water.
In the field of water and waste water, the device convinces with func
-
tions such as pump changeover, flow measurement in open channels,
trend function, totalizer and data logger.
The VEGAMET 861 controller can power the connected sensor and
process its measurement signals. The requested parameter is shown
on the display and also output to the integrated current output for fur-
ther processing. The measurement signal can thus be transferred to a
remote display or a superordinate control system. Operating relays for
control of pumps or other devices are also integrated.
3.3 Adjustment
On-site adjustment of the device is carried out via the integrated
display and adjustment unit.
The optionally integrated Bluetooth module enables in addition a wire-
less adjustment of VEGAMET 861 via standard adjustment tool:
•
Smartphone/tablet (iOS or Android operating system)
•
PC/notebook with Bluetooth LE or Bluetooth USB adapter (Win-
dows operating system)
Information:
Certain setting options are not possible or only possible to a limited
extent with the integrated display and adjustment unit, for example the
settings for flow measurement or pump control. For these applica
-
tions, the use of PACTware/DTM or the VEGA Tools app is recom-
mended. An overview of the available applications and functions as
well as their adjustment options can be found in the appendix.
