Pulsar Sludge Finder 2
20 April, 2010 byPulsar’s Sludge Finder 2 is a solution to the problem of accurately measuring interface levels in primary or secondary settlement tanks and SBR systems. Operating ultrasonically through liquid, Sludge Finder 2 uses echo processing algorithms to identify the sludge interface level by digital echo processing techniques.
Nucleonic measurement
17 April, 2010Nucleonic gauges can be found everywhere where extreme conditions would mean the end for any other measurement technology. That’s because nucleonic devices measure contactlessly, which makes the measuring systems wear free and practically maintenance free as well. However, since this technology uses radioactive radiation, safety is the top priority.
VEGA VEGAMIP 61 microwave barrier
25 February, 2010The VEGAMIP 61 microwave barrier is designed for the requirements and special needs of the bulk solids industry. Since the microwave barrier measures contactlessly, VEGAMIP has no direct contact with the medium. This makes the device suitable for abrasive products or very high temperatures. VEGAMIP 61 can measure from the outside through a microwave-permeable window, for example, of ceramic or plastic.
VEGA ProTrac nuclear measurement instrument
25 February, 2010Under extreme process conditions, many measuring techniques quickly reach their limits. The ProTrac radiation-based measuring instrument is completely unaffected by high vessel pressures, aggressive media, extreme temperatures or difficult physical characteristics of the product.
VEGA VEGAPULS radar level sensors
25 February, 2010Through the extension of the temperature range to 450°C and the higher chemical resistance of the antennas, the VEGAPULS range of radar sensors has a much wider range of application. Additional housing versions, an optimised connection concept and simplified operation with clear adjustment parameters make set-up and commissioning easier.
