3.2 Principle of operation
VEGASWING 66 is a point level sensor with tuning fork for point level
detection.
It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
can be used in liquids. It is particularly suitable for applications with
high temperatures up to 450 °C (842 °F) and high process pressure
up to 160 bar (2320 psig).
Typicalapplicationsareoverllanddryrunprotection.Thesmalltun-
ing fork allows the use in pipelines from DN 32 as well as in all kinds
of vessels and tanks.
Thanks to its simple and robust measuring system, VEGASWING 66
isvirtuallyunaectedbythechemicalandphysicalpropertiesofthe
liquid.
Itfunctionsevenunderdicultconditionssuchasturbulence,foam
generation, buildup, external vibration or changing products.
Function monitoring
The electronics module of VEGASWING 66 continuously monitors the
following criteria via frequency evaluation:
• Strong corrosion or damage on the tuning fork
• Loss of vibration
• Break in the vibration drive circuit
If a malfunction is detected or in case of voltage supply, the electron-
icstakesonadenedswitchingstatus,i.e.therelaydeenergises
(safe state).
The tuning fork vibrates at its mechanical resonance frequency of
approx.1400Hz.Whenthetuningforkissubmergedintheproduct,
the frequency changes.This change is detected by the integrated
electronics module, passed on to the processing system as a current
value and converted there into a switching command.
Depending on your requirements, VEGASWING 66 with two-wire
electronicscanbeconnectedtodierentsignalconditioninginstru-
ments. Compatible signal conditioning instruments are listed in
chapter "Technical data".
Thedataforpowersupplyarespeciedinchapter"Technical data".
3.3 Adjustment
Withthefactorysetting,productswithadensity≥0.7g/cm³
(0.025lbs/in³)canbedetected.Theinstrumentcanbeadaptedto
products with lower density.

4.1 General instructions
Make sure that all parts of the instrument coming in direct contact
with the process, especially the sensor element, process seal and
processtting,aresuitablefortheexistingprocessconditions,such
as process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemical
properties of the medium.
Youcanndthespecicationsinchapter"Technical data" and on the
nameplate.
The instrument is suitable for standard and extended ambient condi-
tions acc. to DIN/EN/IEC/ANSI/ISA/UL/CSA 61010-1.
In general, VEGASWING 66 can be installed in any position. The
instrument only has to be mounted in such a way that the tuning fork
is at the height of the desired switching point.
The tuning fork has lateral markings (notches) that indicate the
switching point with vertical mounting. The switching point applies
to water in conjunction with the basic setting of the density switch
≥0.7g/cm³(0.025lbs/in³).WhenmountingVEGASWING66,make
sure that this marking is at the height of the requested switching point.
Keep in mind that the switching point of the instrument will shift if the
mediumhasadensityotherthanwater-wateris1g/cm³(0.036lbs/
in³).Forproducts≤0.7g/cm³(0.025lbs/in³)and≥0.47g/cm³
(0.017lbs/in³)thedensityswitchmustbesetto≥0.47g/cm³.
Keepinmindthatfoamswithadensity≥0.45g/cm³(0.016lbs/in³)
are detected by the sensor.This can lead to erroneous switchings,
particulary when the sensor is used for dry run protection.

Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power
supply") and tighten the cable gland.
You can give your instrument additional protection against moisture
penetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of the
cablegland.Rainandcondensationwatercanthusdraino.This
applies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areas
where high humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) or
on cooled or heated vessels.
To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is
closed during operation and locked, if necessary.
Makesurethatthedegreeofcontaminationspeciedinchapter
"Technical data" meets the existing ambient conditions.

Caution:
Do not hold VEGASWING 66 on the tuning fork. Particularly with
angeortubeversions,thetuningforkcanbedamagedjustbythe
weight of the instrument.Transport coated instruments very carefully
and avoid touching the tuning fork.
Remove the packaging or the protective cover just before mounting.
The vibrating level switch is a measuring instrument and must be
treated accordingly. Bending the vibrating element will destroy the
instrument.
Warning:
The housing must not be used to screw the instrument in! Applying
tightening force can damage internal parts of the housing.
Use the hexagon above the thread for screwing in.
Metric threads
In the case of instrument housings with metric thread, the cable
glands are screwed in at the factory.They are sealed with plastic
plugs as transport protection.
You have to remove these plugs before electrical connection.
NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is
not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory. The
free openings for the cable glands are therefore covered with red dust
protection caps as transport protection.
Prior to setup you have to replace these protective caps with ap-
proved cable glands or close the openings with suitable blind plugs.
4.2 Mounting instructions
The thread and the seal on the threaded version of VEGASWING 66
correspond to DIN 3852 part 2, screwed plug Form A.
Use screw-in openings or screw-in sleeves according to DIN 3852
part 2.

Make sure that with instruments with 1" NPT thread, the screw-in
opening on the vessel has an inside diameter of at least 29.5 mm
(1.16 in).
To mount the sensor, proceed as follows:
1. Screw the VEGASWING 66 into the mounting boss up to the stop.
You can determine the later position already before welding.
2. Mark the position of the VEGASWING 66 on the mounting boss.
3. Mark the respective position of the mounting boss on the vessel.
In case of lateral mounting, make sure the mark on the spanner
atofVEGASWING66pointsupwards.
4. Remove the VEGASWING 66 from the mounting boss before
welding.
5. Weld the mounting boss according to your marking.
Incaseofhorizontalmountinginadhesiveandviscousproducts,
the surfaces of the tuning fork should be vertical in order to reduce
builduponthetuningfork.Onthescrewedversionyouwillnda
marking on the hexagon. With this, you can check the position of the
tuning fork when screwing it in.
Inthecaseofangeversions,theforkisalignedwiththeangeholes.
When used in adhesive and viscous products, the tuning fork should
protrude into the vessel to avoid buildup. For that reason, sockets
forangesandmountingbossesshouldbeavoidedwhenmounting
horizontally.
Theprocessttingmustbesealedifthereisgaugeorlowpressurein
the vessel. Before use, check if the seal material is resistant against
the measured product and the process temperature.
Themax.permissiblepressureisspeciedinchapter"Technical
data" or on the type label of the sensor.
Note:
Sealforinstrumentswithprocessttingthread
The thread and the seal form on the mounting boss correspond to
DIN 3852, part 2, screwed plug Form A.
We recommend using a temperature and medium-resistant seal for
dismounting the instrument for maintenance and revision purposes.
Indeviceswithalargeangeprocesstting,theangemaydeform
whenthexingscrewsaretightened.Inthiscase,chooseadevice
version with a short tube extension because the tube version is not
aectedbythehightorqueduetoaspecialdecouplingofthetuning
fork drive.
Instruments for high temperatures have a temperature adapter be-
tweenprocessttingandelectronicshousing.Thisisusedforthermal
decoupling of the electronics from high process temperatures.

IfVEGASWING66ismountedinthellingstream,unwantedfalse
measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount
VEGASWING 66 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances,
e.g.fromllingopenings,agitators,etc.,canoccur.
This applies particularly to instrument types with long extension tube.

To make sure the tuning fork of VEGASWING 66 generates as little
resistanceaspossibletoproductow,mountthesensorsothatthe
surfaces are parallel to the product movement.
Duetotheeectsofagitators,equipmentvibrationorsimilar,the
level switch can be subjected to strong lateral forces. For this reason,
do not use an overly long extension tube (optional) for VEGASWING
66, instead check if it is possible to mount a short level switch
VEGASWING66onthesideofthevesselinhorizontalposition.
Extreme vibration caused by the process or the equipment, e.g.
agitators or turbulence in the vessel, can cause a long extension tube
of VEGASWING 66 to vibrate in resonance.This leads to increased
stress on the upper weld joint. Should a longer tube version be neces-
sary, you can provide a suitable support directly above the tuning fork
to secure the extension tube.
This measure applies mainly to applications in Ex areas of category
1GorWHGaswellastoshipclassications.Makesurethatthetube
is not subject to bending stress due to this measure.

The second seal of the gas-tight leadthrough (option) prevents an
uncontrolled leakage of the medium.The service life of the gas-tight
leadthrough depends on the chemical resistance of the materials.
See "Technical data".
Caution:
If it is determined (e.g. via an error message from VEGASWING 66)
that medium has already penetrated into the vibrating element, the
instrument must be exchanged immediately.

Thedataforpowersupplyarespeciedinchapter"Technical data".
Provide a reliable separation between the supply circuit and the
mains circuits according to DIN EN 61140 VDE 0140-1.
Note:
Power the instrument via an energy-limited circuit (max. power 100 W)
acc. to IEC 61010-1, e.g.
• Class 2 power supply unit (acc. to UL1310)
• SELV power supply unit (safety extra-low voltage) with suitable
internal or external limitation of the output current
Keepinmindthefollowingadditionalfactorsthatinuencetheoperat-
ing voltage:
• Lower output voltage of the power supply unit under nominal load
(e.g. with a sensor current of 20.5 mA or 22 mA in case of fault)
• Inuenceofadditionalinstrumentsinthecircuit(seeloadvaluesin
chapter "Technical data")
The instrument is connected with standard two-wire cable without
screening. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above
the test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable
should be used.
Make sure that the cable used has the required temperature resist-
anceandresafetyformax.occurringambienttemperature

Cover all housing openings conforming to standard according to
EN 60079-1.
5.2 Connection procedure
With Ex instruments, the housing cover may only be opened if there is
no explosive atmosphere present.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
plug
3. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.
1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
4. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
5. Open the terminals with a screwdriver
6. Insert the wire ends into the open terminals according to the wir-
ing plan
7. Tighten the terminals with a screwdriver
8. Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly pulling on
them
9. Tighten the compression nut of the cable entry gland. The seal
ring must completely encircle the cable
10. Screw the housing lid back on
Theelectricalconnectionisnished.
