Overview and Application:
The VEGAPULS C 11 is a highly accurate radar level sensor designed as a superior quality replacement for traditional ultrasonic sensors, particularly in water management and wastewater measurement applications.
Its robust, waterproof housing with IP68 protection ensures long-term, maintenance-free operation, especially in harsh environments like underground wells and pump stations. The compact design and axial cable outlet allow for flexible installation.
The sensor can be applied for non-contact level measurement of liquids and for maintenance-free operation in small vessels or containers with bulk solids.
Key Features & Advantages:
| Feature | Benefit |
| High Measurement Accuracy | Up to ±2 mm. |
| Product Independence | Switching point is independent of product properties (pressure or dust have no influence). |
| No Dead Zone | Zero dead zone beneath the sensor (with slightly increased measurement error only in the first 25 cm). |
| Narrow Beam Angle | An 8° beam angle allows use in confined spaces, such as narrow underground shafts. |
| Robust Operation | Accurate measurement even with foam on the surface and resistance to condensation or dust build-up. |
| Noise Immunity | Measurement is independent of ambient noise created during tank filling. |
| Simple Commissioning | Convenient level limit setting without the need to fill or empty the tank/silo. |
| Cost-Effective Upgrade | An inexpensive radar sensor serving as a qualitatively superior replacement for ultrasonic sensors. |
| Flexible Connectivity |
Two-wire 4–20 mA connection, HART, SDI-12, or Modbus, including use in pulse-mode battery-powered stations. |
Measuring Principle (FMCW Radar Technology):
The sensor transmits a frequency-modulated radar signal via the antenna system. The frequency of the signal changes saw-tooth-like. The transmitted signal, reflected by the medium, is received by the antenna as an echo signal with a changing frequency. The difference in frequency between the transmitted and received signals is proportional to the measured distance, thus dependent on the filling level.
| Parameter | Value |
| Measuring Range | up to 8 m (26 ft) |
| Measurement Error | ≤ 2 mm |
| Beam Angle | 8° |
| Measuring Frequency | W-band (80 GHz technology) |
| Output Signal | 4...20 mA/HART, SDI-12, or Modbus/Levelmaster |
| Process Connection | Thread G1½, 1½ NPT, R1½ |
| Mounting Connection | Thread G1, 1 NPT, R1 |
| Process Pressure | -1 to +3 bar (-14.5 to +43.51 psig) |
| Process Temperature | -40 to +80 °C (-40 to +176 °F) |
| Ambient Temperature | -40 to +80 °C (-40 to +176 °F) |
| Power Supply | 12... 35 V DC |
| Protection Degree | IP66/IP68 (3 bar, 24 h) per IEC 60529, Type 4X/6P per UL 5 |
| Wireless Setup | Bluetooth 5.0 (typical communication range 25 m/82 ft) |
| Electronics Options | Two-wire 4...20 mA/HART, digital with SDI-12, or digital with Modbus/Levelmaster. |
The VEGAPULS C 11 is suitable for a wide range of applications, demonstrating reliability where traditional sensors fail:
Wastewater Treatment: Level control in sewage settlement tanks, pump stations, and sewer overflow chambers.
Water Management: Water level measurement in open channels and height measurement in general.
Food Processing: Level measurement in rotational filling machines for cans (e.g., tomato paste) to monitor the level of product on the rotating plate.
Process Control: Measurement and signalling of level in waste containers (e.g., in steam peeling machines), where the sensor must be resistant to acoustic interference and heavy dust.
