When mounting VEGAPULS 62,keep a distance of atleast 200 mm (7.9in)to the vessel wall.If the sensor isinstalled in the center of concave or arched vessel tops,multiple echoes can arise.These can,however,befaded out by an appropriate adjustment (see Setup).If this distance cannot be maintained,a false echostorage should be carried out during setup.This appliesparticularly if buildup on the vessel wall is expected.Inthis case,we recommend repeating the false echostorage later on with existing buildup.12> 200 mmFig.6:Mounting on arched vessel tops1Reference plane2Vessel center or symmetry axisIn vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous tomount the sensor in the center of the vessel,asmeasurement is then possible down to the lowest pointsof the vessel bottom.Installation locationVEGAPULS 62 -4... 20 mA/HART 17Mounting28435-EN-050211

Fig.11:Orientation in liquidsThe radar sensor should be installed at a location whereno installations cross the radar signals.Vessel installations such as,for example,ladders,limitswitches,heating spirals,struts,etc.can cause falseechoes superimposed on the useful echo.Make surewhen planning your measuring location that the radarsignals have "free access"to the measured product.In case of existing vessel installations,a false echostorage should be carried out during setup.If large vessel installations such as struts or supportscause false echoes,these can be attenuated throughsupplementary measures.Small,inclined sheet metalbaﬄes above the installations scatter the radar signalsand avoid a direct false echo reﬂection.Fig.12:Cover smooth proﬁles with deﬂectorsIn case of agitators in the vessel,a false echo storageshould be carried out with the agitators to be in motion.This ensures that the false reﬂections of the agitators aresaved in diﬀerent positions.Vessel installationsAgitators20 VEGAPULS 62 -4... 20 mA/HARTMounting28435-EN-050211

Fig.13:AgitatorsThrough the action of ﬁlling,stirring and other processesin the vessel,dense foams can be generated on theproduct surface which damp the emitted signal consi-derably.If foams can cause measurement errors,biggestpossible radar antennas and low frequency radarsensors,e.g.VEGAPULS 65/66 (C-band)should beused.VEGAFLEX sensors with guided microwaves are notinﬂuenced by foam generation and are particularlysuitable for such applications.By the use of a standpipe,inﬂuences of vesselinstallations and turbulence can be excluded.Underthese requirements,the measurement of products withlow dielectric values (from DK value 1.6)is possible.Surge or bypass tubes must extend all the way down tothe requested min.level,as measurement is onlypossible within the tube.Foam generationMeasurement in thestandpipe (surge or by-pass tube)VEGAPULS 62 -4... 20 mA/HART 21Mounting28435-EN-050211

4.5Preparing the connectionAlways observe the following safety instructions:lConnect only in the complete absence of line voltagelIf overvoltages are expected,overvoltage arrestersshould be installed.Tip:We recommend VEGA overvoltage arresters ÜS-F-LB-Iand ÜSB 62-36G.X.In hazardous areas you should take note of theappropriate regulations,conformity and type approvalcertiﬁcates of the sensors and power supply units.Power supply and current signal are transmitted via thesame two-wire connection cable.The power supplyrange can diﬀer depending on the instrument version.The exact range is stated in the Technical data in theSupplement.Provide a reliable separation between the supply circuitand the mains circuits acc.to DIN VDE 0106 part 101.The VEGA power supply units VEGATRENN 149AEx,VEGASTAB 690,VEGADIS 371 as well as all VEGA-METs meet this requirement.Bear in mind the following factors regarding supplyvoltage:lthe reduction of the output voltage of the powersupply unit under nominal load (with a sensor currentof 20.5mAor 22 mAin case of fault signal)lthe inﬂuence of additional instruments in the circuit(see load values in Technical data)VEGAPULS 62 is connected with standard two-wirecable without screen.An outer cable diameter of 5...9mm ensures the seal eﬀect of the cable entry.Ifelectromagnetic interference is expected,we recom-mend the use of screened cable.Note safety instructionsTake note of safetyinstructions for ExapplicationsSelect power supplySelect connection cable24 VEGAPULS 62 -4... 20 mA/HARTMounting28435-EN-050211

Connect the cable screen on both ends to groundpotential.In the sensor,the screen must be connecteddirectly to the internal ground terminal.The groundterminal outside on the housing must be connected tothe potential equalisation (low impedance).If potential equalisation currents are expected,theconnection on the evaluation side must be made via aceramic capacitor (e.g.1nF,1500 V). The lowfrequency potential equalisation currents are thus sup-pressed,but the protective eﬀect against high frequencyinterference signals remains.Take note of the corresponding installation regulationsfor Ex applications.In particular,make sure that nopotential equalisation currents ﬂow over the cablescreen.In case of grounding on both sides this can beachieved by the use of a capacitor or a separatepotential equalisation.4.6Connection procedureProceed as follows:1Unscrew the housing cover2IfaPLICSCOM indicating and adjustment module isinstalled,remove it by turning it slightly to the left.3Loosen compression nut of the cable entry4Remove approx.10 cm (4in)of the cable mantle,strip approx.1cm (0.4in)insulation from the ends ofthe individual wires5Insert the cable into the sensor through the cableentry6Lift the opening levers of the terminals with ascrewdriver (see following illustration)7Insert the wire ends into the open terminalsaccording to the wiring plan8Press down the opening levers of the terminals,youwill hear the terminal spring closingCable screening andgroundingSelect connectioncable for Ex appli-cationsVEGAPULS 62 -4... 20 mA/HART 25Mounting28435-EN-050211

Manufacturer declaration Manufacturer declaration no. 24626 Messrs. VEGA Grieshaber KG Am Hohenstein 113 77 761 Schiltach declares that the Radar Sensor Type VEGAPULS 61, 62, 63, 65, 66 with electronics H (4...20mA HART) in accordance with DIN/EN 60079-14/1998 paragraph .5.2.3 item c 1 and when used correctly under the condition that the operator follows the instructions in the documents listed: - Mounting and operating instructions in the Operating Instructions manual - Data and instructions of this manufacturer declaration - Installation regulations are suitable for use in Zone 2 The max. surface temperature increase* during operation is 18K. With an ambient temperature of 70°C on the housing and a product temperature of 70°C, the max. surface temperature* is 88°C during operation. Measures to maintain the explosion protection during operation: - Permissible operating voltage: Umin. = 14V; Umax. = 36V. - The instrument must be installed and operated in such a way that ignition due to electrostatic charge is not expected (depending on the version, the antenna, process fitting or the housing are made of electrically non-conductive plastic). - The availability, the perfect quality and the correct position of the seal between the lower part of the housing and the cover must be ensured; the screws for fastening of the cover must be tightened carefully. - If the instrument is operated with opened cover, the adjustment module PLICSCOM is mounted or its keys are pushed, it must be ensured that no explosive atmosphere is present. - Make sure that the cable entry is tight and strain-relieved; the outer diameter of the connection cable must be adapted to the cable entry; the pressure screw of the cable entry must be tightened carefully. - Free openings for cable and cable entries must be covered tightly. - VEGAPULS must be mounted in such a way that contact of the sensor to the vessel wall can be excluded by taking vessel installations and flow conditions in the vessel into account. - The surface temperature must not exceed the ignition temperature of the concerned explosive atmosphere. *Single component in the instrument This instrument was judged by a person meeting the requirements acc. to DIN/EN 60079-14.
