The optimized Vegapuls instrument series is making radar level measurement technology even more versatile and reliable. The completely redeveloped electronics enables faster, more accurate and intelligent signal evaluation, with improved antenna systems and additional housing versions to round out the series. Now demanding application areas such as the chemical, petrochemical, bulk solids and power generation industries can benefit even more from the advantages of using non-contact Vega radar for level measurement.


New Intelligence: The High-performance Electronics
Through faster hardware and "intelligent" signal evaluation, Vegapuls reaches a new level of quality in radar signal analysis. Detection of the level echo movement improves the differentiation of wanted and unwanted signals. For the user, this means higher measuring certainty and increased reliability, even in the most critical applications.


Higher Definition

  • Increased measuring accuracy of +/-2 mm through higher sampling rates
  • Sensitivity raised 5-fold through the higher dynamics of the microwave module
  • Improved signal analysis through improved echo resolution

Powerful Hardware

  • Fast signal processor for detailed echo analysis and quicker response times
  • Measurement memory for service and diagnosis
  • State-of-the-art electronic components with low energy consumption
  • Only 9.6 V operating voltage

Intelligent Echo Analysis

  • Reliable detection of interfering signals
  • Dynamic false signal suppression through detection of level signal movement

Increased Measuring Security

  • Considerably higher measuring security and reliability, even with poorly reflective media
  • Buildup and condensate in the antenna system are reliably recognized
  • Asset management functions with status messages according to NE 107 or VDI/VDE 2650
