3.2 Principle of operation
The VEGATOR 112 is a double-channel signal conditioning instru-
ment for level detection with two level switches with NAMUR interface.
Simple monitoring and control functions can be realised via the inte-
grated relays.Typical applications are monitoring functions such as
overllanddryrunprotection.Asanalternativetothedouble-channel
level detection, a two-point control can be activated.
The VEGATOR 112 signal conditioning instrument powers connected
sensors and simultaneously processes their measuring signals.
When the medium reaches the switching point of the sensor, the sen-
sor current changes.This is measured and evaluated by VEGATOR
112.The change causes the output relays to switch according to the
set operating mode.
Wide-range power supply unit with 20 … 253 V AC/DC for worldwide

5 Connecting to power supply
5.1 Preparing the connection
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
•Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage
•If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should
be installed
Inhazardousareasyoumusttakenoteoftherespectiveregulations,
conformityandtypeapprovalcerticatesofthesensorsandpower
supply units.
Thevoltagesupplycanbe20…253VAC/DC,50/60Hz.Yo u cannd
details on the voltage supply in the technical data.
The operating voltage of VEGATOR 112 is connected with standard
cable according to the national installation standards.
The sensors are connected with standard two-wire cable without
screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable should
be used.
Connect the cable screen on both ends to ground potential. In the
sensor, the screen must be connected directly to the internal ground
terminal.The ground terminal on the outside of the sensor housing
must be connected to the potential equalisation (low impedance).
If potential equalisation currents are expected, the connection on the
processing side must be made via a ceramic capacitor (e. g. 1 nF,
1500 V).The low-frequency potential equalisation currents are thus
suppressed,buttheprotectiveeectagainsthighfrequencyinterfer-
ence signals remains.
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex applica-
tions. In particular, make sure that no potential equalisation currents
owoverthecablescreen.Incaseofgroundingonbothsidesthis
can be achieved by the use of a capacitor or a separate potential
equalisation.
5.2 Connection procedure
The pluggable terminals can be removed as needed to allow more
convenient connection. To make the electrical connection, proceed as
follows:
1. Mount the instrument as described in the previous chapter
2. Connect sensor cable 1 to terminal 1/2, and where applicable,
connect the screen
3. Connect sensor cable 2 to terminal 4/5, and where applicable,
connect the screen
4. Connectpowersupply(switchedo)toterminal16/17
5. Connect relay 1 to terminal 10/11/12
6. Connect relay 2 to terminal 13/14/15

As opposed to single point control, two-point control allows the
switch-onandswitch-opointstobesetatdierentlocations(hyster-
esis).Through the installation or the distance of the two sensors, the
hysteresiscanbedenedindividually.
Thetwo-pointcontrolisusedforexamplewhenllingandemptying
iscarriedoutviaapump.Thellingofavesselcanbeforexample
switchedonat10%andswitchedoagainat90%.Theoutputof
thesecondchannelbehavesidenticallyliketherstchannelprovided
the same mode is set. By changing the mode, the function of the
relays can be inverted.
When NAMUR level switches are connected, the line monitoring func-
tion can check the input continuously for line break or short-circuit. If
amechanicalswitch,e.g.aoatswitch,istobeconnected,theline
monitoring must be deactivated because only the switching condi-
tions "open" or "closed" can be delivered.
When level switches VEGAVIB/VEGAWAVE in NAMUR version are
connected, a function test can be carried out.The test key is recessed
behind the front cover of the signal conditioning instrument. Press the
test key for at least one second with a suitable object (screwdriver,
pen, etc.).
Pushing the test key interrupts the circuit to the sensor and triggers
a restart of the sensor. In the process, the conditions fault signal, full
alarm (< 1.2 mA) and empty alarm (> 2.1 mA) are simulated one after
the other. Check if a fault signal is triggered when you push the test
key (red LED lights). The red LED does not light up when line monitor-
ing is deactivated.
After the test key is released, the sensor is again supplied with
voltage.Duringthewarm-upphaseofthesensor,thecurrentbriey
increases,whichcanenergizetherelayandtheyellowLED.Thisis
not relevant for the test assessment.
Once the sensor is ready for operation, a full alarm is simulated for
approx. 3 s, the yellow LED does not light and the relay is deener-
gized.Forapositivetestassessment,thetimemustbebetween2s
and 4 s.
Finally, an empty alarm is simulated by the sensor for approx. 1.5 s.
TheyellowLEDlightsandtherelayisenergized.Forapositivetest
assessment, this time must be at least 1 s.
Thetestprocedureisnownished,LEDandrelayreturntotheactual
operating condition.
When a VEGASWING is connected, it is only line break that is simu-
lated when the test key is pushed. Thus, only the correct behaviour
of VEGATOR and the downstream device in the event of fault can be
tested.
Note:
Keep in mind that downstream connected devices are activated dur-
ing the function test.This allows you to check the correct function of
the measuring system.

7 Maintenanceandfaultrectication
7.1 Maintenance
If the instrument is used properly, no special maintenance is required
in normal operation.
7.2 Rectify faults
Maximum reliability is ensured. Nevertheless, faults can occur during
operation.These may be caused by the following, e.g.:
•Measured value from sensor not correct
•Voltage supply
•Interference in the cables
Therstmeasuretobetakenistochecktheinputandoutputsignals.
The procedure is described as follows. In many cases the causes can
bedeterminedthiswayandfaultscanbeeasilyrectied.
Should these measures not be successful, please call in urgent cases
the VEGA service hotline under the phone no. [phone].
Thehotlineismanned7daysaweekround-the-clock.Sinceweoer
this service worldwide, the support is only available in the English
language.The service is free, only standard call charges are incurred.
Depending on the reason for the fault and the measures taken, the
steps described in chapter "Set up" may have to be carried out again.
Cause Rectication
Sensor not connected
correctly
– In Ex systems, make sure that the Ex protection
isnotinuencedbythemeasuringinstruments
used.
– Measure the current and voltage on the connec-
tion cable to the sensor
– Faults in the sensor that cause a current change
under 0.05 mA or over 6.8 mA lead to a fault
signal with signal conditioning instruments.
– In idle state, the terminal voltage (without sensor)
is at least 8.2 V
– The signal conditioning instrument has an inner
resistance of 1 kOhm.With this, the voltages for
thedierentcurrentscanbecalculated.
