    It functions even when exposed to strong external vibration or changing products. Solid detection in water If VEGAWAVE 63 was ordered for detection of solids in water, the tuning fork is adjusted to the density of water. In the air or when covered by water (density: 1 g/cm³/0.036 lbs/in) VEGAWAVE 63 signals "uncovered".

  • Page 11: Mounting

    Mounting 4 Mounting 4.1 General instructions In general, VEGAWAVE 63 can be mounted in any position. Switching point The instrument must be mounted in such a way that the vibrating element is at the height of the requested switching point.
  • Page 12: Mounting Instructions

    Extreme vibration caused by the process or the equipment, e. g. agitators or turbulence in the vessel e.g. from fluidization, can cause the extension tube of VEGAWAVE 63 to vibrate in resonance. This leads to increased stress on the upper weld joint.
  • Page 13 Mounting Fig. 3: Inflowing medium VEGAWAVE 63 can be mounted with a lock fitting for height Lock fitting adjustment. Take note of the pressure information of the lock fitting. The vibrating element should protrude into the vessel to avoid Socket buildup.

  • Page 16: Connecting To Voltage Supply

    Select power supply Take note of the general installation regulations. As a rule, connect VEGAWAVE 63 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.

    The switching point is preset and covered by a label. It must only be modified in special cases. By default, the potentiometer of VEGAWAVE 63 is set to the right stop (>0.02 g/cm³ or 0.0008 lbs/in³). In case of very light-...
  • Page 21: Function Chart

    Setup weight solids, turn the potentiometer to the left stop (>0.008 g/ cm³ or 0.0003 lbs/in³). VEGAWAVE 63 will thus be more sensitive and can detect light-weight solids more reliably. For instruments detecting solids in water, these values are not applicable.
