3.2 Principle of operation
Application area
41912-EN-120228
VEGAMIP R62 • - Relay 7
VEGAMIP 62 is a microwave barrier for level detection.
It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
can be used in bulk solids and liquids.

3 Product description
Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. With an
operating distance of 100 m, VEGAMIP 62 can be used, for example,
in bulk solids silos with large diameters. Thanks to its simple and
rugged measuring system, VEGAMIP 62 is virtually unaffected by the
process and the chemical and physical properties of the medium.
VEGAMIP 62 can also be used for detection of vehicles and ships or
for material recognition on conveyor belts.
It works even under extremely difficult conditions: different grain sizes,
contamination, extreme filling noise, high temperatures, strong dust
generation and abrasive products are all no problem for the
instrument.
The VEGAMIP consists of an emitting unit VEGAMIP T61 and a
receiving unit VEGAMIP R62 with external housing.

Functional principle
The emitting unit transmits a focused microwave signal via horn
antenna to the receiving unit on the opposite side. If there is medium
between emitting and receiving unit, the signal is damped. This
change is detected by the built-in electronics module and converted
into a switching command.

cess conditions
Moisture
Switching point
With instruments with threaded process fitting, suitable tools must be
applied for tightening the hexagon.
Warning:
The housing must not be used to screw the instrument in! Applying
tightening force can damage internal parts of the housing.
Make sure that all parts of the instrument exposed to the process, in
particular the active measuring component, process seal and process
fitting, are suitable for the existing process conditions. These include
above all the process pressure, process temperature as well as the
chemical properties of the medium.
You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the
type label.
Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power
supply") and tighten the cable gland.
You can give your instrument additional protection against moisture
penetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of the
cable entry. Rain and condensation water can thus drain off. This
applies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areas
where high humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) or
on cooled or heated vessels.
4.2 Instructions for installation
If possible, install VEGAMIP 62 in a position where a high signal
damping by the medium is expected.
Avoid mounting the instrument too close to the vessel wall. Reflections
from the vessel wall or from vessel installation can influence the
switching accuracy.

Product strength
The VEGAMIP 62 requires a minimum product strength to detect
different products.
Dependent on the medium there will be a respective product
thickness.
The properties of the medium are also dependent on the granulation
size, the bulk density and the moisture content.
Some exemplary reference values for the min. strength of the medium:
Product type Medium Min. product
strength
Plastic granules PTFE, PS > 1000 mm
PP, PE, HDPE, POM > 500 mm
PA, PVC, PVDF > 250 mm
Foodstuffs and wood Flour > 100 mm
Cereals, corn, rice > 100 mm
Wood chips (dry) > 500 mm
Wood chips (moist) > 100 mm
Mineral products / Ore Stones (e.g. limestone) > 100 mm
Cement, clinker > 100 mm
Glass (crushed) > 100 mm
Coal > 50 mm
Bauxite > 100 mm
Ore > 100 mm
Inflowing medium
If VEGAMIP 62 is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false
measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount
VEGAMIP 62 at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g.
from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur.
Non-metallic vessels
Microwaves can penetrate non-conductive materials. Hence, it is
possible to measure through the wall of non-conductive vessels.

Concrete vessel
In general, the same as for metal vessels applies to concrete vessels
due to the steel braining.
Wood vessels
In general, the same as for metal vessels applies to wood vessels due
to the liquid absorption of the wood.
Pipelines
VEGAMIP 62 can be used for detection of products in pipelines. In
pipelines of non-metallic products such as plastic or glass, the
measured product can be detected through the pipe wall.

Note:
In the case of VEGAMIP 62 with NPT thread, the instrument seals in
the thread itself. Hence, no counter nut is necessary for these
versions.
Buildup
Avoid long sockets in which the medium can remain and if possible,
mount VEGAMIP 62 front-flush. This applies mainly if buildup and dust
are expected.

2 Correct front flush installation
If a front-flush installation is not possible, you can fill long sockets with
a plastic or ceramic cylinder to avoid build up of bu lk solids and dust
deposits. Select the material according to the diameter of the socket
and adapt the length as far as possible to the shape of the vessel wall.
Secure the filling material against falling out or turning. If using a fixing
screw is technically not possible, you can secure the material in the
socket with an adhesive.

Vibrations
In very abrasive products, VEGAMIP 62 should be installed with a
mounting adapter or in front of a suitable window. In this case, you
have to use a window material which is appropriately resistant.
In case of strong vessel vibrations, the VEGAMIP 62 should be
mounted with anti vibration blocks or rubber buffers.

Orientation of the sensor
Angle
For an optimum switching signal, the two sensors must be adapted to
each other. The accuracy must be in a range of ±5°.
Offset
The two sensors can have an offset of up to < 5 % of the sensor
distance (d) to each other. Example: with a sensor distance of
1000 mm, the two sensors must have an offset of max. 50 mm to each
other.
General rule: the bigger the antenna and the better it focusses, the
more precise the orientation has to be.

Polarisation direction
The emitting unit emits electromagnetic waves. The polarisation plane
is the direction of the electrical wave component. Its position is marked
on the instrument hexagon by polarisation markings.
For a reliable function, the emitting and receiving unit must be installed
in the same polarisation direction.
If several instrument pairs are installed in a vessel, the instrument pairs
can be coded by different polarisation positions to avoid that they
influence one another.

Special mounting options
20 VEGAMIP R62 • - Relay
In tight mounting spaces or spaces subject to high temperatures, the
signal of VEGAMIP 62 can be guided via a deflector. For this you can
use a metal plate or an angled antenna extension on the side of the
emitting unit. In products with low dielectric value, we recommend
using an instrument version with antenna extension because it
focusses the signal optimally and has no signal loss. With instrument
versions with detachable horn antenna, the antenna extension can be
retrofitted.

Tip:
Mount the wall mounting plate so that the cable entry of the socket
housing points downward. Rain and condensation water can thus drain
off. The socket housing can be displaced by 180° to the wall mounting
plate.
Turn the cable gland of the instrument housing downward. The basic
body of the instrument housing can be turned by 330° without any
tools.
Warning:
The four screws of the socket housing must only be hand screwed. A
torque > 5 Nm (3.688 lbf ft) can damage the wall mounting plate.

Safety instructions
Voltage supply
Connection cable
Connection technology
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
l Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage
l If voltage surges are expected, install overvoltage arresters
Connect the operating voltage according to the connection diagrams.
The electronics module is designed in protection class I. To maintain
this protection class, it is absolutely necessary that the earth conductor
be connected to the inner earth conductor terminal. Keep the general
installation regulations in mind. Take note of the corresponding
installation regulations for hazardous areas with Ex applications.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
The instrument is connected with standard three-wire cable without
screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable should be
used.
Use cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of 5 … 9 mm
(0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable gland. If you are
using cable with a different diameter or cross-section, exchange the
seal or use a suitable cable gland.
Cover all housing openings conforming to standard according to
EN 60079-1.
5.2 Connection procedure
The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the springloaded terminals in the housing.
Optionally you can order a preconfectioned cable in different lengths.

Prerequisites
Mode
With the mode switch (max./min.) you can change the switching status
of the relay. You can set the required mode according to the "Function
chart" (max. - maximum detection or overflow protection, min. minimum detection or dry run protection).
With these keys (7 and 8) you can adjust the switching point to the
medium.
Depending on the process, the sensitivity of VEGAMIP 62 must be set
higher or lower.
Pressing the "<--" key makes the sensor more sensitive. Pressing the
"-->" key makes the sensor less sensitive.
You can also adjust the switching delay with the two keys.
By means of the LED indicating board, you can see the actual
receiving level during adjustment.
When the indication moves to the right, the instrument will be more
insensitive, to the left more sensitive.
6.2 Adjustment
The microwave barrier can only be adjusted when being uncovered.
Make sure that there is no measured medium or vessel installations
between the emitting and receiving unit.
Select the requested mode (min./max.) according to the function chart.
The following function chart provides an overview of the switching
statuses depending on the set mode and level.

By means of the slide switch, you can set the switching direction
according to the switching function your relay output should perform.
l For maximum indication or overfill protection set the slide switch to
position max.
l For minimum indication or dry run protection, set the slide switch to
position min.
The relay is energized if the yellow relay control lamp lights.
With the two keys you can change the LED indication strip and adjust
the switching point to the medium.
The keys are lowered to avoid unintentional changes of the setting. For
adjustment, use for example, a small screwdriver.
If you press one of the keys for more than two seconds, the adjustment
range shifts automatically in the respective direction. The greater the
distance between emitting and receiving unit, the greater the adjustment range of the indication. The LED indication strip always shows a
small sec tion of the actual measuring range.
Pressing the "<--" key makes the sensor more sensitive. Pressing the
"-->" key makes the sensor less sensitive.

6 Setup
Press the respective key until the indication is within the LED indication
strip. This means one or two LEDs on the LED indication strip will light
up.
Fig. 37: Indication strip
1 Indication (LED indication strip)
2 More sensitive - Key to the left
3 Less sensitive - Key to the right
A Medium: Plastics (PP, PVC …), solvents
B Medium: Building materials (sand, stones …)
C Medium: Conductive substances (coal, ore, salt …)
Set the indication approximately to the middle of the LED indicating
board until the yellow relay control lamp changes status.
Depending on the vessel size, process and/or medium, you have to
adjust the sensitivity of VEGAMIP 62 to more or less sensitive. In
products with low signal damping, in small vessels or pipelines or with
buildup, it might be necessary to test the switching function.
Receive level
Medium provides good
signal damping
By means of the LED indicating board, you can see the actual receive
level during adjustment.
When the indication moves to the right, the instrument will be more
insensitive, to the left more sensitive.
In applications with products providing good signal damping (eg
stones, ore, sand, cement) and where buildup and contamination is
expected, you should adjust the instrument to less sensitive. In this
case, the VEGAMIP 62 switches only with a relatively large signal
damping by the medium. Possible buildup does not influence the
measurement.
In case of buildup, press the key (to the right) until the flashing LEDs
are at the right edge of the LED indication strip. For strong buildup, you
can press the key several times to make the instrument less sensitive.
The display on the LED indication strip does not change, but the
instrument will b ecome a little less sensitive with each pressing of the
key.

Page 33
6 Setup
Fig. 38: LED indication strip - Setting for products with good signal damping
If there is strong buildup during operation, adjustment with buildup is
recommended. A short period of operation is probably sufficient to
create buildup, or buildup can be created artifically or imitated.
Product provides little
signal damping
In applications with products providing poor signal damping (eg plastic
granules, cereals), you should adjust the instrument to more sensitive.
This way, the VEGAMIP 62 switches very sensitively, even with a
relatively low coverage by the product.

Switching delay
By means of the LED indicating board, you can adjust the switching
delay.
Push the two keys (7) and (8) simultaneously for approximately 2 s
until the LED indication flashes.
With the two keys you can select the requested switching delay
according to the following illustration.
The switching delay can be adjusted in seven steps between 100 ms
and 20 s.
Fig. 40: Adjust switching delay - LED indication flashes
If the indication moves to the right, the switching delay will be longer, to
the left shorter.
The indication returns automatically to the indication of the actual
receiving level after approximately 10 s.
Simulation
If possible, simulate a filling between emitting and receiving unit with
your hand or a metal sheet and check if the switching point is adjusted
correctly. If the control lamp changes its switching status, the switching
function is correct.
