This radar sensor offers advantages for water applications

| By Chemical Engineering

VEGA Grieshaber KG,

The new radar sensor Vegapuls WL 61 was conceived especially for use in water supply and distribution systems and is an alternative to ultrasonic systems. The tightly encapsulated cable and robust housing make the high protection rating of IP 66/68 (1 bar) possible. Thanks to the different mounting options, the sensor can be easily integrated into existing infrastructure. The measurement data can be transmitted either directly to an existing control system or to a signal conditioning instrument that provides suitable relays for pump control. — VEGA Grieshaber KG, Schiltach, Germany
