Principle of operation

Application area
VEGAWELL S 51 is used for level measurement
in vessels and for gauge measurement in deep
wells, e.g. in water/sewage water applications.
Functional principle
The actual sensor element is the CERTEC
measuring cell with rugged ceramic diaphragm.
The hydrostatic pressure causes a capacitance
change in the measuring cell via the ceramic
diaphragm. This change is converted into an
appropriate output signal.
Seal concept
As a standard feature, the CERTEC
cell is equipped with a lateral, recessed seal.
Instruments with double seal have an additional
front seal.
For use in closed vessels under vacuum, VEGAWELL 51 is available with absolute pressure measuring ranges.

General instructions

Process conditions
Note:
For safety reasons, the instrument must
only be operated within the permissible
process conditions. You can find detailed
information on the process conditions in
chapter " Technical data" of the opera-
ting instructions or on the type label.
Hence make sure before mounting that all parts
of the instrument exposed to the process are
suitable for the existing process conditions.
These are mainly:
•
Active measuring component
•
Process fitting
•
Process seal
Process conditions in particular are:
•
Process pressure
•
Process temperature
•
Chemical properties of the medium
•
Abrasion and mechanical influences
Suitability for the ambient conditions
The instrument is suitable for standard and
extended ambient conditions acc. to DIN/EN/
IEC/ANSI/ISA/UL/CSA 61010-1. It can be used
indoors as well as outdoors.
