Operating Instruction - VEGAVIB

The document provides operating instructions for the VEGAVIB level switch. It describes the product's functions, configurations, types, versions, approvals, technical specifications, dimensions, mounting instructions, electrical connections, and setup procedures. The level switch is used to monitor powder and granule levels and contains piezoelectric oscillators that vibrate at a mechanical frequency. When material reaches the sensor, the vibration is dampened and electronics detect this to trigger a switching command. The document outlines various models with different lengths, outputs, and approvals for use in hazardous areas.

Horizontal installation
To achieve a very precise switching point,
VEGAVIB can be mounted horizontally. However
if the switching point can have a tolerance of a
few centimetres, we recommend mounting the
instruments downwardly inclined (approx. 20°)
to avoid buildup (see fig. 2.2). Mount VEGAVIB

switch (C), the relay output (R) or the transistor 3
1
output (T) . You can set the required mode acc.
to the "Function chart". A - max. level detection
or overfill protection, B - min. level detection or 4
dry run protection.

With oscillator Z the A/B mode can be switched 5


via the signal conditioning instrument. Note the
setup of the signal conditioning instrument.

of the product. This is necessary for detection of
extremely light or heavy products. Turn the
potentiometer anticlockwise to make the vibrat-
ing probe more sensitive. Normally, a modifica-
tion of the default setting will only be necessary
with extremely light products.

With adhesive products, it might be necessary


to turn the potentiometer clockwise to achieve a
better oscillation.
