Vegapuls 68 Continuous Radar Level Sensor

Brand: VEGA
The VEGAPULS 68 is a radar sensor for continuous measurement of bulk solids also under difficult process conditions and with large measuring ranges. 

The sensor is ideal for level measurement in high silos, large bunkers, stone crushers and in the furnace. 

The VEGAPULS 68 with different antenna versions and materials is the optimum solution for virtually all applications and processes. 

Through the wide temperature and pressure range, the sensor can be used universally and enables a simple planning.
Features
  • Maintenance-free operation through non-contact measuring principle
  • High plant availability, because wear and maintenance-free
  • Reliable measurement independent of vapour, dust and noise
