What is VEGATOR 112
VEGATOR 112 is a vibrating rod level switch launched by VEGA, mainly used for level detection of powders, granular solids, and some liquids. It uses piezoelectric drive to make the vibrating rod resonate. When the material covers the vibrating rod, the amplitude decreases, and the electronic module outputs a switching signal accordingly.
This instrument is often used for high or low level alarms in silos and is suitable for limit detection in chemical, building materials, food, pharmaceutical, and other industries. Compared with capacitive and rotary paddle principles, the vibrating type has better adaptability to buildup and dust.

Core Technical Parameters
The table below lists common specifications of VEGATOR 112. Specific values are subject to the accompanying manual and nameplate, and the medium characteristics should be confirmed during selection.
| Item | Typical Parameter |
|---|---|
| Measuring principle | Vibrating rod type (tuning fork/vibrating rod) |
| Applicable media | Powders, granular materials, some liquids |
| Output signal | Relay/transistor switching quantity |
| Supply voltage | Depends on model (DC/AC) |
| Process connection | Thread or flange |
| Protection class | IP66/IP67, etc. |
Key Points for Selection
- Medium density: When the density is too low, confirm whether the vibrating rod sensitivity is sufficient.
- Process temperature and pressure: Exceeding the range will affect the service life of the electronic module.
- Wetted materials: Corrosive media require stainless steel or coated versions.
- Output type: Choose relay or transistor according to the PLC or alarm circuit.
Installation and Wiring Steps
Correct installation is the prerequisite for ensuring stable operation of VEGATOR 112. It is recommended to operate in the following order and strictly refer to the illustrations in the Chinese manual.
- Confirm the opening position of the silo, avoiding the feed inlet and stirring dead corners.
- Install the vibrating rod horizontally or vertically to ensure the material can effectively cover the vibrating rod.
- Tighten the process connection and check the seal to prevent dust or liquid from entering.
- Connect the power supply and output circuit according to the wiring diagram, paying attention to polarity and grounding.
- After power-on, observe the indicator light and perform empty and full bin action tests.
Commissioning and Common Faults
- No output: Check power supply, wiring polarity, and fuse.
- False alarm: Confirm whether the vibrating rod has buildup or is installed too short.
- Delayed action: Adjust sensitivity or check for changes in medium density.
- Abnormal indicator light: Refer to the fault code table in the manual for troubleshooting.
Maintenance and Procurement Recommendations
VEGATOR 112 has a compact structure and low daily maintenance. It is recommended to regularly check whether the vibrating rod is worn or scaled and clean accumulated material at the process connection.
When purchasing, please provide medium name, density, temperature, pressure, process connection specifications, and output requirements so that the supplier can quickly match the appropriate model. For complete information, please download the VEGATOR 112 Chinese manual PDF above.
