VEGAKON 61 Product Overview
VEGAKON 61 is a vibrating level switch launched by VEGA, mainly used for level limit detection of powdered and granular solid materials. The instrument is based on the tuning fork vibration principle. When the material covers the probe, the vibration frequency changes, thereby outputting a switching signal.
VEGAKON 61 is widely used in grain, chemical, building materials, plastics and other industries, suitable for measuring fine particles or powdered media. Its compact structure and easy installation make it a commonly used instrument in industrial level control.

VEGAKON 61 Technical Parameters and Selection
Core Parameters Overview
| Parameter | Typical Value/Range |
|---|---|
| Measuring principle | Vibrating tuning fork |
| Applicable medium | Powdered, granular solids |
| Process temperature | -40°C ~ +150°C |
| Process pressure | -1 ~ +16 bar |
| Output signal | Relay, transistor, NAMUR |
| Power supply | 20~250V AC/DC |
| Protection class | IP66/IP67 |
| Process connection | Thread, flange |
Selection Notes
- Medium characteristics: Select the appropriate probe length and material according to particle size, density, and dielectric constant.
- Process conditions: Confirm whether temperature and pressure are within the allowable range. For high temperatures, an extension tube is required.
- Output mode: Select relay, transistor, or NAMUR output according to the control system interface.
- Explosion-proof requirements: For explosive environments, choose intrinsically safe or flameproof type.
VEGAKON 61 Installation and Commissioning
Installation Steps
- Confirm the installation position and avoid direct impact of material on the probe. It is recommended to install on the side wall or top of the silo.
- According to the process connection type, weld or thread the flange/base to ensure good sealing.
- Screw in or flange-mount the VEGAKON 61, ensuring the probe extends an appropriate length into the silo.
- Connect the power supply and output signal lines according to the wiring diagram in the manual, paying attention to polarity and shielded grounding.
- After power-on, observe the indicator light and perform empty and full silo tests to confirm normal switching action.
Commissioning Points
- Sensitivity adjustment: Adjust sensitivity according to material density to avoid false triggering.
- Delay setting: A delay of 0.5~10 seconds can be set to prevent frequent switching caused by material fluctuation.
- Status indication: The LED light displays the output status for quick on-site judgment.
Common Faults and Maintenance
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No output signal | Power not connected or wiring error | Check power supply and wiring |
| False alarm | Sensitivity too high or material buildup on probe | Adjust sensitivity, clean probe |
| Switch does not operate | Probe damaged or medium density too low | Replace probe or select a more sensitive model |
Daily Maintenance
- Regularly check the probe for material adhesion, wear, or corrosion.
- Clean the probe during shutdown to avoid scaling affecting vibration.
- Check whether the cable sealing connector is loose to ensure the protection class.
Summary
VEGAKON 61 is a reliable solid level switch. Correct selection, installation, and commissioning can significantly improve measurement stability. It is recommended that engineering personnel download the VEGAKON 61 Chinese manual and strictly follow the specifications.
