3.2 Principle of operation
The VEGAPULS 65 is a radar sensor for continuous measurement of
liquids under simple process conditions. It is particularly suitable for
level measurement in vessels with small process fittings and under
simple process conditions.
The instrument can be used with products with an ε
r
value ≥1.8. The
actually achievable value depends on the measuring conditions, the
antenna system, the standpipe or bypass.
The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with a
duration of approx. 1 ns. These pulses are reflected by the product
