Replacing displacers: Upgrading to guided wave radar technology eliminates costly maintenance
05. August
Many refineries and petrochemical facilities rely on mechanical displacers for liquid level measurements and interface measurements. Replacing this older technology with a VEGAFLEX guided wave radar is a simple way to improve efficiency and eliminate unnecessary labor costs.
Automating level measurements saves time and money
23. July
The 80 GHz VEGAPULS 69 radar level sensor for solids accurately measures malts and grains in dozens of large silos at a large brewery outside of Mexico City.
How a simple point level measurement saw through the foam
06. July
Of all the sensors inside Bell’s Brewery, however, only one is highlighted with a bright LED indication ring – the VEGAPOINT 21. This point level switch is special for a couple of reasons. It’s the first of its kind to be installed in the United States, and it’s located on a foam trap tank in the newest addition of the growing brewery.

Radiometric Measurements and X-Ray Interference
10. February
X-ray interference with radiometric, or nuclear, instrumentation is a serious problem that can result in measurement errors and permanent damage to detectors. This white paper discusses users’ options for preventing errors, avoiding damage, and continuing to measure during X-ray interference events.
