The VEGA VEGACAL 62 is a capacitive level sensor designed for continuous measurement of bulk solids and non‑conductive liquids such as oil. It uses a partly PTFE‑insulated rod probe that reliably detects changes in level by evaluating capacitance variations between the probe and tank wall. Because the design supports simple mounting and setup, it is widely used across industrial environments for dependable level monitoring.
Typical applications include silos, process tanks and storage vessels in chemical, oil and gas, and general industrial systems.
Not Recommended For:
• Simple local float switches or point devices
• Gas‑only environments without liquid or bulk content
• Confirm the type of medium—VEGACAL 62 is suited for bulk solids and non‑conductive liquids with stable dielectric properties.
• Verify the measuring range needed; typical installed probe lengths support up to about 6 m depending on configuration.
• Choose the proper probe insulation material, which is partly PTFE for robust chemical resistance and performance.
• Select suitable process connections, such as threaded (≥ G½, ≥ ½ NPT) or flanged (≥ DN25, ≥ 1″).
• In addition, confirm the required communication and output type, such as 4…20 mA/HART, PROFIBUS PA or Foundation Fieldbus.
• Continuous Level Measurement for Solids & Liquids
It measures continuous level over the entire probe length using a capacitive principle, making it suitable for a wide range of bulk materials and non‑conductive liquids.
• Partly Insulated Rod Probe
The PTFE‑insulated section ensures stable performance in bulk solids and liquids such as oils, improving detection reliability.
• Robust Industrial Design
The construction features durable materials and mechanical design for long service life and low maintenance in industrial conditions.
• Maximum Vessel Utilisation
Level measurement occurs from the tank top to the lowest point of the probe without a dead band, enabling efficient use of storage volume.
• Flexible Output and Integration
Outputs such as 4…20 mA/HART, Profibus PA or Foundation Fieldbus allow easy integration with PLC, DCS or automation systems.
Q: What measuring principle does VEGACAL 62 use?
A: It uses the capacitive level sensing principle, where the sensor and vessel walls form a capacitor. Level changes alter capacitance, which is converted to a level signal.
Q: Can this sensor measure both solids and non‑conductive liquids?
A: Yes. The partly insulated rod probe is designed to handle bulk solids and non‑conductive liquids such as oil.
Q: What output options are available?
A: Common outputs include 4…20 mA/HART, Profibus PA and Foundation Fieldbus, making it suitable for process automation.
Q: What process connections are supported?
A: The sensor supports threaded and flanged connections such as G½/½ NPT and DN25/1″ depending on installation requirements.
