2 For your safety

2.1 Authorised personnel

All
operations described in this operating instructions manual
must be carried out only by trained specialist personnel authorised by the operator.
During work on and with the device the required personal protection equipment must always be worn.

2.2 Appropriate use

VEGAKON 66 is a sensor for level detection.
You can nd detailed information on the application range in
chapter "Product description".

2.3 Warning about misuse

Inappropriate or incorrect use of the instrument can give rise to application-specic hazards, e.g. vessel overll or damage to system components through incorrect mounting or adjustment.

2.4 General safety instructions

This is a high-tech instrument requiring the strict observance of standard regulations and guidelines. The user must take note of the safety instructions in this operating instructions manual, the country-specic installation standards as well as all prevailing safety regulations and accident prevention rules.
The instrument must only be operated in a technically awless and reliable condition. The operator is responsible for trouble­free operation of the instrument.
The user is also obliged to determine, during the entire duration of use, the compliance of the necessary occupational safety measures with the current valid regulations and take note of new regulations.

2.5 CE conformity

VEGAKON 66 is in CE conformity with EMC (89/336/EWG) and LVD (73/23/EWG).
Conformity has been judged according to the following standards:

3.2 Principle of operation

The conductive VEGAKON 66 compact level switches detect levels of conductive liquids.
If at least two electrodes are covered with a conductive medium, small alternating currents (<1 mA) ow from the measuring electrode to the ground electrode.

2
Fig. 2: Functional principle 1 Ground probe 2 Max. level (max. electrode) 3 Min. level (min. electrode)
These alternating currents are measured in respect to their amplitude and phase position and converted into a switching command.
VEGAKON 66 can be used for reliable detection of products over a very wide conductivity and viscosity range.
A level detection can be realised with two measuring electro­des, e.g. a pump or two-point control with three measuring electrodes.
VEGAKON 66 is a compact instrument, i.e. it can be operated without external evaluation system. The integrated electronics evaluates the level signal and outputs a switching signal. With this switching signal, a connected device can be operated directly (e.g. a warning system, a PLC, a pump etc.).
The data for power supply are stated in chapter "Technical data" in the "Supplement".

3.3 Operation

The VEGAKON 66 is a compact level switch with integrated oscillator.
On the electronics module you will nd the following indicating and adjustment elements:
l Control lamp for indication of the switching condition l Mode changeover for selection of the output signal l DIL switch for adjustment of the integration time l Rotary switch for adjustment of the conductivity value
3.4 Stora
ge and transport
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test according to DIN EN 24180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environ-
ment-friendly, recyclable cardboard. In addition, the sensor is provided with a protective cover of cardboard. For special versions PE foam or PE foil is also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised recycling companies.
