Fig. 3: Level measurement with VEGABAR 87
The process pressure acts on the sensor element via the stainless
steel diaphragm and an internal transmission liquid. The process
pressure causes a resistance change which is converted into a cor-
responding output signal and output as measured value.
The METEC
®
measuring cell is the measuring unit. It consists of
the ceramic-capacitive CERTEC
®
measuring cell and a special,
temperature-compensated isolating system.
