Pressure sensors and level measurement
Pressure Transmitters from VEGA: our pedigree is borne from the demanding requirements of tens of thousands of hydrostatic pressure based, level installations. In this application linearity and accuracy has to perform throughout the measuring range and a sensors’ performance is constantly monitored against contents and level readings. VEGABAR pressure transmitters also have a range of approvals and designs for chemical, marine, food and pharmaceuticals available.
Measuring principle
The pressure measuring cell is the heart of the pressure transmitter converting the pressure into an electrical signal. This pressuredependent signal is converted by the integrated electronics into a standardized output signal. Different sensors are used for pressure measurement. The ceramic cells have the advantages of excellent longterm stability with high overload resistance. The metal cells cover higher measuring ranges and use stainless steel as diaphragm material.
Why Should I use Pressure Transducers?
VEGABAR sensors offer high precision, reliability and offer an easy solution to measurements. SMART electronics and Fieldbus versions are available.
- VEGA pressure transmitters have a very high overload resistance, up to 200 times, self-monitoring cells and 0.1% accuracy as standard. There are three main types of measurement cell with advantages for different pressure applications. The measurement cell is the heart of any transmitter.
- CERTEC CELL – a ceramic cell for excellent, chemical and abrasion resistance and high overload up to 200 times!
- METEC CELL – a hastelloy and stainless, self temperature compensating cell patented by VEGA for hygienic and high temperatures up to 250 degC with no additional chemical seal. Overload up to 200 times too!
- DMS CELL – a dry metal diaphragm, vibration and shock resistant design for pressure ranges up to 600 bar
- VEGA offer pressure transmitters for top, bottom and side mounting, hygienic, aseptic, 3A, EHEDG and FDA approved designs and materials.
Hydrostatic sensors and level measurement
Measuring principle
The pressure measuring cell converting the pressure into a signal which can be evaluated electrically is the heart of the pressure transmitter. This pressure-dependent signal is converted by the integrated electronics into a standardized output signal. Different sensors are used to detect the pressure. The ceramic cell characterizes by an excellent long-term stability and high overload resistance. The metal cell covers even higher measuring ranges and use stainless steel as diaphragm material.
