During work on and with the device the required personal protective equipment must always be worn. 2.2 Appropriate use The VEGAVIB 62 is a sensor for level detection. You can find detailed information on the application range in chapter "Product description".
You can find the CE conformity declaration in the download area of www.vega.com. 2.7 SIL conformity VEGAVIB 62 meets the requirements of functional safety according to IEC 61508. Further information is available in the Safety Manual "VEGAVIB series 60".
IEC 61511" (optional) Supplementary instructions manual "Plug connector for level sensors" (optional) Ex-specific "Safety instructions" (with Ex versions) if necessary, further certificates The VEGAVIB 62 consists of the following components: Constituent parts Housing cover Housing with electronics Process fitting with vibrating rod Fig.
In addition to the type label outside, you can also find the serial number on the inside of the instrument. 3.2 Principle of operation VEGAVIB 62 is a point level sensor with vibrating rod for level Application area detection.

If VEGAVIB 62 is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false Inflowing medium measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount VEGAVIB 62 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. VEGAVIB 62 • - transistor (NPN/PNP)

Connect the operating voltage according to the following diagrams. Take note of the general installation regulations. As a rule, connect VEGAVIB 62 to vessel ground (PA), or in case of plastic vessels, to the next ground potential. On the side of the instrument housing there is a ground terminal between the cable entries.
