Product Overview and Working Principle
Measurement Principle
VEGACAL 63 is based on the capacitive measurement principle: the probe and the vessel wall form the two plates of a capacitor. Changes in level alter the dielectric constant, thereby causing a change in capacitance. The instrument converts the capacitance change into a standard signal output to achieve continuous level measurement.

- Suitable for liquid, solid particle, and interface measurement
- Wide measuring range, adaptable to high-temperature and high-pressure conditions
- Multiple probe materials and process connections available
- Output 4…20 mA / HART and other signals
- Rugged construction, low maintenance

Installation and Commissioning
Installation Steps
- Confirm that the process connection and seals match to avoid leakage.
- Install the probe vertically on the top or side of the vessel, ensuring the probe is insulated from the vessel wall.
- For non-conductive vessels, a grounding tube or reference electrode must be installed.
- Tighten the process connection, observing torque requirements.
- Wire and power on, then check the output signal.
Commissioning Points
- Empty tank calibration: set 4 mA for empty level.
- Full tank calibration: set 20 mA for full level.
- When the medium changes, recalibration or adjustment of the dielectric constant is required.
- Remote parameter setting is possible using a HART handheld communicator or commissioning software.
Typical Applications and Maintenance
Typical Applications
- Chemical storage tank level measurement
- Water treatment and wastewater level
- Hygienic measurement in the food and beverage industry
- Solid particle silo level
- Oil-water interface measurement
Maintenance Recommendations
- Regularly check the probe for adhesion, scaling, or corrosion.
- Avoid damaging the insulation layer when cleaning the probe.
- Check seal aging and replace in time.
- Verify the output signal to ensure measurement accuracy.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What media is VEGACAL 63 suitable for?
It is suitable for liquid, solid particle, and interface measurement, especially for media with stable dielectric constants. For low dielectric constant media, a suitable probe must be selected or calibration performed.
How to obtain the VEGACAL 63 Chinese manual?
You can download the PDF version via the link above in this article, or contact VEGA official or authorized distributors for the latest manual.
What should be noted during installation?
Ensure the probe is insulated from the vessel wall. For non-conductive vessels, a grounding tube must be added. Avoid installation directly below the feed inlet to prevent impact and material buildup.
