3.2Principle of operation
VEGAPULS 62 is a radar sensor in K-band (emitting frequency
approx.26 GHz)for continuous level measurement.
Aversion of VEGAPULS 62 is available for the respective
application.
The version with "thread and horn antenna with ø40 mm
(1.6in)"is particularly suitable for small tanks and process
vessels for measurement of virtually all products.
The version with "flange and horn antenna with
ø48 …95 mm (ø1.9…3.7in)"is particularly suitable for
storage tanks and process vessels,for measurement of
solvents,hydrocarbons and fuels under most difficult process
conditions.
The version with "parabolic antenna"is particularly suitable
for precise measurement of products with small dielectric
value.
The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with
a duration of approx.1ns.These pulses are reflected by the
product and received by the antenna as echoes.The running
time of the radar pulses from emission to reception is

proportional to the distance and hence to the level.The
determined level is converted into an appropriate output signal
and outputted as measured value.
Two-wire electronics 4…20 mA/HART for power supply and
measured value transmission on the same cable.
The voltage supply range can differ depending on the
instrument version.The exact range is stated in the "Technical
data"in the "Supplement".
The backlight of the indicating and adjustment module
PLICSCOM is powered by the sensor.Prerequisite for this is a
supply voltage at a certain level.The exact voltage specifica-
tions are stated in the "Technical data"in the "Supplement".
This function is for instruments with StEx,WHG or ship
approval as well as country-specific approvals such as those
acc.to FM or CSA,available at a later date.
The optional heating requires its own power supply.Details
can be found in the supplementary instructions manual
"Heating for indicating and adjustment module PLICSCOM".
This function is generally not available for approved instru-
ments.

4.1General instructions
Select an installation position you can easily reach for
mounting and connecting as well as later retrofitting of an
indicating and adjustment module.The housing can be rotated
by 330°without the use of any tools.You can also install the
indicating and adjustment module in four different positions
(each displaced by 90°).
Warning:
The housing must not be used to screw in the instrument!
Applying tightening force on the housing can damage its
internal mechanical parts.
Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to
power supply")and tighten the cable gland.
You can give your VEGAPULS 62 additional protection against
moisture penetration by leading the connection cable down-
ward in front of the cable entry.Rain and condensation water
can thus drain off.This applies mainly to mounting outdoors,in
areas where moisture is expected (e.g.by cleaning processes)
or on cooled or heated vessels.

4.4Mounting information
The illustrations on the mounting instructions show a VEGA-
PULS 62 with horn antenna.The mounting instructions also
apply to VEGAPULS 62 with parabolic antenna.
When mounting VEGAPULS 62,keep a distance of at least
200 mm (7.9in)to the vessel wall.If the sensor is installed in
the center of concave or arched vessel tops,multiple echoes
can arise.These can,however,be faded out by an appropriate
adjustment (see "Setup").
If this distance cannot be maintained,a false echo storage
should be carried out during setup.This applies particularly if
buildup on the vessel wall is expected.In such case,we
recommend repeating the false echo storage later on with
existing buildup.

Mounting
28435-EN-060317
Fig.11:Orientation in liquids
The radar sensor should be installed at a location where no
installations cross the microwave signals.
Vessel installations such as,for example,ladders,limit
switches,heating spirals,struts,etc.can cause false echoes
that get superimposed on the useful echo.Make sure when
planning your measuring site that the radar sensor has a "clear
view"to the measured product.
If there are existing vessel installations,a false echo storage
should be carried out during setup.
If large vessel installations such as struts or supports cause
false echoes,these can be attenuated through supplementary
measures.Small,inclined sheet metal baffles above the
installations scatter the radar signals and avoid a direct false
echo reflection.
Fig.12:Cover smooth profiles with deflectors
If there are agitators in the vessel,a false echo storage should
be carried out with the agitators in motion.This ensures that
the interfering reflections from the agitators are saved with the
blades in different positions.

Through the action of filling,stirring and other processes in the
vessel,dense foams which considerably damp the emitted
signals may form on the product surface.
If foams lead to measurement errors,you should use the
biggest possible radar antennas and low frequency radar
sensors,e.g.VEGAPULS 65,66 (C-band).
VEGAFLEX sensors with guided microwaves are not influ-
enced by foam generation and are particularly suitable for such
applications.
By the use of a standpipe,influences of vessel installations
and turbulence can be excluded.Under these requirements,
the measurement of products with low dielectric values (from
DK value 1.6)is possible.
Surge or bypass tubes must extend all the way down to the
requested min.level,as measurement is only possible within
the tube.

If possible,the antenna diameter of the sensor should
correspond to the inner diameter of the tube.With VEGAPULS
62 this is approx.40 mm (1.6in). The sensor can be used with
tube diameters between 40 …80 mm (1.6…3.2in).
Make sure you provide the necessary upper vent hole in the
surge pipe,which must by displaced by 90°to the polarisation
marking on the sensor (see illustration:"Pipe antenna system
in a tank").
As an alternative to the surge pipe in the vessel,a pipe system
can be mounted outside of the vessel as a bypass tube.For
setup,select the function "Bypass tube".
Align the sensor in such a way that the polarisation marking on
the process fitting is displaced by 90°to the tube holes or the
tube connection openings (see illustration:"VEGAPULS in a
bypass tube").

5Connecting to power supply
5.1Preparing the connection
Always observe the following safety instructions:
lConnect only in the complete absence of line voltage
lIf overvoltages are expected,overvoltage arresters should
be installed
Tip:
We recommend using VEGA overvoltage arresters ÜS-F-LB-I
and ÜSB 62-36G.X.
In hazardous areas you should take note of the appropriate
regulations,conformity and type approval certificates of the
sensors and power supply units.
Power supply and current signal are transmitted via the same
two-wire connection cable.The supply voltage range can differ
depending on the instrument version.The exact range is
stated in the "Technical data"in the "Supplement".
Provide a reliable separation between the supply circuit and
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 VEGAMETs meet this require-
ment.
Bear in mind the following factors regarding supply voltage:
lthe reduction of the output voltage of the power supply unit

VEGAPULS 62 is connected with standard two-wire cable
without screen.Aouter cable diameter of 5…9mm ensures
the seal effect of the cable gland.If electromagnetic
interference is expected which is above the test values of
EN 61326 for industrial areas,screened cable should be used.
For HART multidrop operation we recommend as standard
practice the use of screened cable.
OnVEGAPULS 62 with cable gland ½NPT and plastic
housing,a metal ½" threaded insert is moulded in the plastic
housing.

Caution:
No grease should be used when screwing the NPT cable
gland or steel tube into the threaded insert.Standard grease
can contain additives affecting the connection between
threaded insert and housing.This will influence the stability of
the connection and the tightness of the housing.
If screened cable is necessary,connect the cable screen on
both ends to ground potential.In the sensor,the screen must
be connected directly to the internal ground terminal.The
ground terminal on the outside of the housing must be
connected to the potential equalisation (low impedance).
If potential equalisation currents are expected,the connection
on the evaluation side must be made via the ceramic capacitor
(e.g.1nF,1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation
currents are thus suppressed,but the protective effect against
high frequency interference signals remains.
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex
applications.In particular,make sure that no potential equal-
isation currents flow over the cable screen.In case of
grounding on both sides this can be achieved by the use of a
capacitor or a separate potential equalisation.

AsVEGAPULS 62 is a distance measuring instrument,the
distance from the sensor to the product surface is measured.
To have the real product level displayed,an allocation of the
measured distance to the percentage height must be made.To
carry out this adjustment,the distance is entered with full and
empty vessel.If these values are not known,an adjustment
with the distance values,e.g.10 %and 90 %is also possible.
Starting point for this distance specifications is always the seal
surface of the thread or flange.With these settings the real
level is calculated.Furthermore the operating range of the
sensor is limited from maximum to the required range.
The real product level during this adjustment is not important,
because the min./max.adjustment is always carried out
without changing the product level.These settings can be
made ahead of time without the instrument having to be
installed.
In the main menu item "Basic adjustment",the individual
submenu items should be selected one after the other and
provided with the correct parameter values.
Start your parameter adjustment with the following menu items
of the basic adjustment:
Proceed as follows:

Each product has different reflective properties.In addition,
there are various interfering factors which have to be taken into
account:agitated product surfaces and foam generation (with
liquids); dust generation,material cones and echoes from the
vessel wall (with solids). To adapt the sensor to these different
conditions,you should first select in this menu item "Liquid"or
"Solid".

Medium
Liquid
According to the conductivity and the dielectric value of liquids,
the reflection properties can differ considerably.Therefore
additional options such as "Solvent","Chem.mixture"and
"Water based"are offered below the menu item Liquid.
With solids,you can choose between "Powder/Dust","Gran-
ular/Pellets"or "Ballast/Pebbels".
Through this additional selection,the sensor is adapted
perfectly to the product and measurement reliability,partic-
ularly in products with bad reflective properties,is considerably
increased.
Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys,save
your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->]key.
Apart from the medium,the vessel shape can also influence
the measurement.To adapt the sensor to the measuring
conditions,this menu item offers different options depending
on whether liquid or solid.With "Liquid"these are "Storage
tank","Stilling tube","Open vessel"or "Stirred vessel",with
"Solid","Silo"or "Bunker".
Vessel form
Storage tank
Information:
With VEGAPULS 62 with electronics version "Increased
safety","Solid"is preset as factory setting.However,the
instrument should be used preferably in liquids.In such cases,
the vessel form should be set to "Storage tank"during setup.
Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys,save
your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->]key.
To suppress fluctuation in the measured value display,e.g.
caused by a turbulent product surface,an integration time can
be set.This time can be between 0and 999 seconds.Please
note that the reaction time of the entire measurement will be
longer and the sensor will react to quick changes of the

Alinearization is necessary for all vessels in which the vessel
volume does not increase linearly with the level -e.g.with a
cylindrical or spherical tank -and the indication or output of the
volume is required.Corresponding linearization curves are
preprogrammed for these vessels.They represent the
correlation between the level percentage and vessel volume.
By activating the appropriate curve,the volume percentage of
the vessel is displayed correctly.If the volume should not be
displayed in percent but e.g.in l or kg,a scaling can be also
set in the menu item "Display".

In this menu item you can enter an unambiguous designation
for the sensor,e.g.the measurement loop name or the tank or
product designation.In digital systems and in the documen-
tation of larger plants,a singular designation should be entered
for exact identification of individual measuring sites.

Proceed as follows:
1Move from the measured value display to the main menu
by pushing [OK].
2Select the menu item "Service"with [->]and confirm with
[OK].Now the menu item "False signal suppression"is
displayed.
3Confirm "False signal suppression -Change now"with
[OK]and select in the below menu "Create new".Enter the
actual distance from the sensor to the product surface.All
false signals in this area are detected by the sensor and
saved after confirming with [OK].
Note:
Check the distance to the product surface,because if an
incorrect (too large)value is entered,the existing level will be
saved as false signal.The filling level would then no longer be
detectable in this area.
This function enables to read out parameter adjustment data

6.6Saving the parameter adjustment data
It is recommended noting the adjusted data,e.g.in this
operating instructions manual and archive them afterwards.
They are hence available for multiple use or service purposes.
IfVEGAPULS 62 is equipped with an indicating and adjust-
ment module PLICSCOM,the most important data can be read
out of the sensor into PLICSCOM.The procedure is described
in the operating instructions manual "Indicating and adjustment
module PLICSCOM"in the menu item "Copy sensor data".
The data remain there permanently even if the sensor power
supply fails.
If it is necessary to exchange VEGAPULS 62,PLICSCOM is
inserted into the replacement instrument and the data are
written into the sensor under the menu item "Copy sensor
data".

8Maintenance and fault rectification
8.1Maintenance
When used as directed in normal operation,VEGAPULS 62 is
completely maintenance-free.
8.2Fault rectification
VEGAPULS 62 offers maximum reliability.Nevertheless faults
can occur during operation.These may be caused by the
following,e.g.:
lSensor
lProcess
lSupply
lSignal processing
The first measures to be taken are to check the output signals
as well as to evaluate the error messages via the indicating
and adjustment module PLICSCOM.The procedure is
described below.Further comprehensive diagnostics can be
carried out on a laptop with the software PACTware™and the
suitable DTM.In many cases,the causes can be determined in
this way and faults can be rectified.
Should the following measures not be successful,please call
in urgent cases the VEGA service hotline under the phone
number +49 1805 858550.
The hotline is available to you 7days a week round-the-clock.
Since we offer this service world-wide,the support is only
available in the English language.The service is free of
charge,only the standard telephone costs will be charged.
Connect a hand-held multimeter with a suitable measuring
range acc.to the wiring plan.

InEx applications,only an instrument and an electronics
module with appropriate Ex approval may be used.
If there is no electronics module available on site,one can be
ordered from the VEGA agency serving you.
The order data of the sensor must be downloaded into the new
electronics module.This can be done:
lat the factory by VEGA personnel
lor on site by the user
In both cases,the sensor serial number is necessary.The
serial numbers are stated on the type label of the instrument or
on the delivery note.
Information:
When loading on site,the order data must be downloaded from
the Internet (see Operating Instructions manual of the
oscillator).
The oscillators are adapted to the respective sensor and differ
in their signal output or in their power supply.You can find a
suitable oscillator in the following overview.
