For your safety
28790-EN-070507

lthis operating instructions manual
lthis manufacturer declaration (24638)
lthe applicable installation regulations
Max.increase of the surface temperature during operation:
15 K(individual components in the instrument)
With an ambient temperature of 70 °C(158 °F)on the housing
and a process temperature of 70 °C(158 °F), the max.ambient
temperature during operation is 85 °C(185 °F).
Measures to maintain explosion protection during operation:
lThe instrument must be connected on a Foundation
Fieldbus signal conditioning instrument and operated on it.
lOperate the instrument in the range of the specified
electrical limit values.Permissible supply voltage:see
"Technical data"
lMount and operate the instrument in such a way that no
danger of ignition by electrostatic charges is to be
expected.Transducer,process fitting and housing (as the
case may be depending on instrument version)are made
of electrically non-conductive plastic.
lMake sure that the seal is mounted correctly between
lower part of the housing and cover.Screw the cover on
tightly.
lMake sure there is no explosive atmosphere present if you
intend to operate the instrument with opened cover
lMake sure that the cable gland is tight and strain-relieved.
The outer diameter of the connection cable must be
adapted to the cable gland.Tighten the pressure screw of
the cable gland carefully.
lCover unused openings for cable glands tightly
lMount the instrument in such a way that the sensor cannot
touch the vessel wall or vessel installations.Keep in mind
the influence of product movement in the vessel.
lThe surface temperature of the housing must not exceed
the ignition temperature of the surrounding explosive
atmosphere
This instrument was assessed by a person who fulfils the DIN
EN 60079-14 requirements.
2.9Functional range of approved instruments
Instruments with specific approvals are partly supplied with an
earlier hardware or software version.For approval-technical
reasons,some functions for these instruments will be available
only at a later date.

3.2Principle of operation
VEGASON 61 is an ultrasonic sensor for continuous level
measurement.It is suitable for liquids and solids in virtually all
industries,particularly in the water and waste water industry.
The transducer of the ultrasonic sensor transmits short
ultrasonic pulses to the measured product.These pulses are
reflected by product surface and received again by the
rtansducer as echoes.The running time of the ultrasonic
pulases from emission to reception is proportional to the
distance and hence the level.The determined level is
converted into an appropriate output signal and outputted as
measured value.
Power is supplied via the H1Fieldbus.Atwo-wire cable
according to Fieldbus specification serves as carrier of both
power and digital data signals for multiple sensors.This cable
can be operated in two versions:
lvia an H1interface card in the control system and
additional power supply
lvia a linking device with HSE (High speed Ethernet)and
additional voltage supply according to IEC 61158-2
The DD (Device Descriptions)and CFF (capability files)
necessary for planning and configuration of your FF (Founda-
tion Fieldbus)communication network are available in the
download area of the VEGA homepage www.vega.com under
"Services -Downloads -Software -Foundation Fieldbus".The
appropriate certificates are also available there.A CD with the
appropriate files and certificates can be ordered via e-mail
under [e-mail] or by phone from one of the VEGA
agencies under the order number "DRIVER.S".
The backlight of the indicating and adjustment module is
powered by the sensor.Requirement is a certain height of the
supply voltage.
The data for power supply are stated in chapter "Technical
data"in the "Supplement".
This function is for instruments with StEx,WHG or ship
approval as well as country-specific approvals such as those
according to FM or CSA,available at a later date.
The optional heating requires its own power supply.You can
find further details in the supplementary instructions manual
"Heating for indicating and adjustment module".
