3.2 Principle of operation
VEGAPULS 61 is a radar sensor in K-band (emitting frequency ap­prox. 26 GHz) for continuous level measurement.
The version with encapsulated antenna system is particularly suit­able for level measurement of aggressive liquids in small vessels.
The version with plastic horn antenna is particularly suitable for ow measurement in open umes or gauge measurement in bodies of
water.
The electronics with increased sensitivity enables the use of VE­GAPULS 61 also in applications with very poor reective properties or products with low εr value.
The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with a duration of approx. 1 ns. These pulses are reected by the product and received by the antenna as echoes. The transit time of the radar pulses from emission to reception is proportional to the distance and hence to the level. The determined level is converted into an appropri­ate output signal and outputted as measured value.
Power supply via the Probus DP/PA segment coupler or VEGALOG 571 EP cards. A two-wire cable according to Probus specication serves as carrier of both power and digital data transmission for mul­tiple sensors. The instrument prole of VEGAPULS 61 corresponds to prole specication version 3.0.
The GSD (instrument master les) and bitmap les necessary for planning your Probus-DP-(PA) communication network are available from the download section on the VEGA homepage www.vega.com under "Services-Downloads-Software-Probus". There you can also nd the appropriate certicates. In a PDM environment, an EDD (Electronic Device Description) is also required to enable the full range of sensor functions (also available as a download).A CD with the appropriate les can be ordered via e-mail under info@de.vega. com or by phone from one of the VEGA agencies under the order number "DRIVER.S".
The backlight of the display and adjustment module is powered by the sensor. Prerequisite is a certain level of operating voltage.
The data for power supply are specied in chapter "Technical data". The optional heating requires its own operating voltage. You can nd
detailed information in the supplementary instructions manual "Heat-

4.1 General instructions
Select an installation position you can easily reach for mounting and connecting as well as later retrotting of a display and adjustment module. The housing can be rotated by 330° without the use of any tools. You can also install the display and adjustment module in four dierent positions (each displaced by 90°).
Warning:
With threaded versions, the housing must not be used to screw in the instrument! Applying tightening forces on the housing can damage its internal parts.
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 o. 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.

Make sure that all parts of the instrument coming in direct contact with the process, especially the sensor element, process seal and process tting, are suitable for the existing process conditions, such as process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemical properties of the medium.
You can nd the specications in chapter "Technical data" and on the nameplate.
4.2 Mounting preparations, mounting strap
The optionally available mounting strap is used to fasten the radar sensor over open vessels or umes. It is suitable for mounting on walls, ceilings or brackets. The strap is supplied unassembled and must be screwed to the sensor with the three hexagon socket screws M5 x 10 and spring washers before setup. Max. torque see chapter "Technical data". Necessary tools: Allen wrench size 4.
Screwing on is possible in two ways. Depending on the selected ver­sion, the sensors can be swivelled in the strap as follows:
•
Single chamber housing
– 180° innitely variable – in three steps 0°, 90° and 180°
•
Double chamber housing
– 90° innitely variable – in two steps 0° and 90°
4.3 Mounting instructions
When mounting the sensor, keep a distance of at least 200 mm (7.874 in) to the vessel wall. If the sensor is installed in the center of dished or round vessel tops, multiple echoes can arise. These can, however, be suppressed by an appropriate adjustment (see chapter "Setup").
If you cannot maintain this distance, you should carry out a false signal storage during setup. This applies particularly if buildup on the

Fig. 10: Recommended socket mounting
If the reective properties of the medium are good, you can mount VEGAPULS 61 on sockets which are higher than the length of the antenna. You will nd recommended values for socket heights in the following illustration. The socket end should be smooth and burr-free, if possible also rounded. After installation you must carry out a false
echo storage.

In liquids, direct the sensor as perpendicular as possible to the prod­uct surface to achieve optimum measurement results.
Fig.12:Alignmentinliquids
The mounting location of the radar sensor should be a place where no
other equipment or xtures cross the path of the microwave signals. Vessel installations such as for example, ladders, limit switches, heat-
ing spirals, struts etc. can cause false echoes that interfere with the useful echo. Make sure when planning your measuring site that the radar signals have a "clear view" to the measured product.
In case of existing vessel installations, a false echo storage should be carried out during setup.
If large vessel installations such as struts or supports cause false echoes, these can be attenuated through supplementary measures. Small, inclined sheet metal baes above the installations scatter the radar signals and prevent direct interfering reections.

If there are agitators in the vessel, a false signal storage should be carried out with the agitators in motion. This ensures that the interfer­ing reections from the agitators are saved with the blades in dierent
positions.
Fig. 14: Agitators
Through the action of lling, stirring and other processes in the vessel, dense foams which considerably damp the emitted signals may form on the product surface.
If foams lead to measurement errors, you should use the biggest pos­sible radar antennas and low frequency radar sensors (C-band).
As an alternative, sensors with guided microwave can be used. These are unaected by foam generation and are best suited for such ap­plications.
By using a standpipe, the inuence of vessel installations and turbu­lence can be excluded. Under these prerequisites, the measurement of products with low dielectric constant (from 1.6) is possible.
Note:
Measurement in a standpipe is not recommended for extremely adhesive products.
Surge or bypass tubes must extend all the way down to the requested min. level, as measurement is only possible within the tube.
Surge pipe
Make sure you provide the necessary upper vent hole in the surge pipe. The hole must be aligned so that it and the polarisation marking on the sensor are in the same plane (see illustration: "Pipe antenna system in a tank").

If possible, the antenna diameter of the sensor should correspond to the inner diameter of the tube. With VEGAPULS 61 this is approx. 40 mm (1.575 in). The sensor can be used with tube diameters be­tween 40 … 80 mm (1.575 … 3.15 in).
Bypass tube
As an alternative to the surge pipe in the vessel, a tube system out­side of the vessel is possible as a bypass tube. Select during setup the function "Bypass tube".
Align the sensor in such a way that the polarisation marking on the process tting is in the same plane as the tube holes or the tube con­nection openings (see illustration: "VEGAPULS in a bypass tube").

When the sensor is mounted on a bypass tube, the distance from VE­GAPULS 61 to the upper tube connection should be approx. 500 mm (19.69 in) or more. In case of extremely rough tube inner walls, you should use an inserted tube (tube in tube) or a radar sensor with tube
antenna.

We recommend VEGA overvoltage arrester B63-32.
In hazardous areas you must take note of the respective regulations, conformity and type approval certicates of the sensors and power supply units.
Power is supplied via a Probus DP/PA segment coupler or a VEGA­LOG 571 EP input card. The power supply range can dier depending
on the instrument version.
The data for power supply are specied in chapter "Technical data".
Connection is made with screened cable according to the Probus specication. Power supply and digital bus signal are carried over the same two-wire connection cable.
Use cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of 5 … 9 mm (0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal eect of the cable gland. If you are using cable with a dierent diameter or cross-section, exchange the seal or use a suitable cable gland.
Please make sure that your installation is carried out according to the Probus specication. In particular, make sure that the termination of the bus is done with appropriate terminating resistors.
On the instrument with cable entry ½ NPT and plastic housing there is a metallic ½" threaded insert moulded into the plastic housing.
Caution:
No grease should be used when screwing the NPT cable gland or steel tube into the threaded insert. Standard grease can contain additives that corrode the connection between threaded insert and housing. This would inuence the stability of the connection and the tightness of the housing.
In systems with potential equalisation, connect the cable screen directly to ground potential at the power supply unit, in the connection box and at the sensor. The screen in the sensor must be connected directly to the internal ground terminal. The ground terminal outside on the housing must be connected to the potential equalisation (low impedance).
In systems without potential equalisation, connect the cable screen directly to ground potential at the power supply unit and at the sensor. In the connection box or T-distributor, the screen of the short stub to the sensor must not be connected to ground potential or to another

cable screen. The cable screens to the power supply unit and to the next distributor must be connected to each other and also connected to ground potential via a ceramic capacitor (e.g. 1 nF, 1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation currents are thus suppressed, but the protective eect against high frequency interference signals
remains.
The total capacitance of the cable and of all capacitors must not
exceed 10 nF in Ex applications.
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex applica-
tions. In particular, make sure that no potential equalisation currents ow over the cable screen. In case of grounding on both sides this can be achieved by the use of a capacitor or a separate potential equalisation.
5.2 Connection procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing cover
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn­ing it to the left.
3. Loosen compression nut of the cable entry gland
4. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx. 1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires

Approx. 10 minutes after the last pressing of a key, an automatic reset to measured value indication is triggered. Any values not conrmed with [OK] will not be saved.
6.4 Setup steps
Before starting the actual parameter adjustment of a Probus PA sensor, the address setting must rst be carried out. You will nd a detailed description in the operating instructions manual of the display and adjustment module or in the online help of PACTware or DTM.
As VEGAPULS 61 is a distance measuring instrument, the distance from the sensor to the product surface is measured. To have the real product level displayed, an allocation of the measured distance to the percentage height must be made. To carry out this adjustment, the distance is entered with full and empty vessel. If these values are not known, an adjustment with the distance values, e.g. 10 % and 90 % is also possible. Starting point for these distance specications is al­ways the seal surface of the thread or ange. With these settings, the real level is calculated. Furthermore the operating range of the sensor is limited from maximum to the required range.
The real product level during this adjustment is not important, be­cause the min./max. adjustment is always carried out without chang­ing the product level. These settings can be made ahead of time without the instrument having to be installed.
Caution:
If there is a separation of liquids with dierent dielectric constant in the vessel, e.g. from condensation, VEGAPULS 61 can detect under certain circumstances only the medium with the higher dielectric
constant.
Keep in mind that interfaces can cause faulty measurements.

Each product has dierent reective properties. In addition, there are various interfering factors which have to be taken into account: agitated product surfaces and foam generation (with liquids); dust generation, material cones and echoes from the vessel wall (with solids). To adapt the sensor to these dierent conditions, you should rst select "Liquid" or "Solid".
Medium
Liquid
Information:
With VEGAPULS 61 with electronics version "Increased safety", "Solid" is preset as factory setting. However, the instrument should be used preferably in liquids. In such cases, the medium selection should be set to "Liquid" during setup.
According to the conductivity and the dielectric constant of liquids, the reection properties can dier considerably. Therefore additional options such as "Solvent", "Chem. mixture" and "Water based" are oered below the menu item Liquid.
With solids, you can also choose between "Powder/Dust", "Granular/ Pellets" or "Ballast/Pebbels".
Through this additional selection, the sensor is adapted perfectly to the product and measurement reliability, particularly in products with poor reective properties, is considerably increased.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.
Apart from the medium, the vessel shape can also inuence the measurement. To adapt the sensor to these measuring conditions, this menu item oers dierent options depending on whether liquid or bulk solid is selected. With "Liquids" these are "Storage tank", "Stilling tube","Open vessel" or "Stirred vessel", with "Solid", "Silo" or "Bunker".
Vessel form
Storage tank
Information:
With VEGAPULS 61 with electronics version "Increased safety", "Solid" is preset as factory setting. However, the instrument should be used preferably in liquids. In such cases, the vessel form should be set to "Storage tank" during setup.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.
A linearisation is necessary for all vessels in which the vessel volume does not increase linearly with the level - e.g. in a horizontal cylindri­cal or spherical tank - and the indication or output of the volume is

required. Corresponding linearisation curves are preprogrammed for these vessels. They represent the correlation between the level per­centage and vessel volume. By activating the appropriate curve, the volume percentage of the vessel is displayed correctly. If the volume should not be displayed in percent but e.g. in l or kg, a scaling can be also set in the menu item "Display".

Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.
Caution:
Note the following if the VEGAPULS 61 with corresponding approval is used as part of an overll protection system according to WHG (Water Resources Act):
If a linearisation curve is selected, the measuring signal is no longer necessarily linear to the lling height. This must be considered by the user especially when adjusting the switching point on the limit signal
transmitter.
High sockets or vessel installations, such as e. g. struts or agitators as well as buildup and weld joints on the vessel walls, cause interfering reections which can impair the measurement. A false echo storage detects and marks these false echoes, so that they are no longer taken into account for the level measurement. A false echo memory should be created with low level so that all potential interfering reec­tions can be detected.
False signal suppression
Change now?
Proceed as follows:
1. Move from the measured value display to the main menu by
pushing [OK].
2. Select the menu item "Service" with [->] and conrm with [OK]. Now the menu item "False signal suppression" is displayed.
3. Conrm "False signal suppression - Change now" with [OK] and select in the below menu "Create new". Enter the actual distance from the sensor to the product surface. All false signals in this area are detected by the sensor and saved after conrming with
[OK].
Note:
Check the distance to the product surface, because if an incorrect (too large) value is entered, the existing level will be saved as a false signal. The level would then no longer be detectable in this area.

The menu item "Extended setting" oers the possibility to optimise
VEGAPULS 61 for applications in which the level changes very quickly. To do this, select the function "Quick level change > 1 m/min.".
Extended setting
quick level change > 1 m/min.
Note:
Since with the function "Quick level change > 1 m/min." the genera­tion of an average value of the signal processing is considerably reduced, false reections by agitators or vessel installations can cause measured value uctuations. A false echo memory is thus recommended.

6.10 Saving the parameter adjustment data
We recommended noting the adjusted data, e.g. in this operating instructions manual, and archiving them afterwards. They are thus available for multiple use or service purposes.
If VEGAPULS 61 is equipped with a display and adjustment module, the most important data can be read out of the sensor into the display and adjustment module. The procedure is described in the operating instructions manual "Display and adjustment module" in the menu item "Copy sensor data". The data remain there permanently even if the sensor power supply fails.
If it is necessary to exchange the sensor, the display and adjustment module is inserted into the replacement instrument and the data are written into the sensor under the menu item "Copy sensor data".

7.2 Parameter adjustment with PACTware
For parameter adjustment of the instrument via a Windows PC, the conguration software PACTware and a suitable instrument driver (DTM) according to FDT standard are required. The latest PACTware version as well as all available DTMs are compiled in a DTM Collec­tion. The DTMs can also be integrated into other frame applications according to FDT standard.
Note:
To ensure that all instrument functions are supported, you should always use the latest DTM Collection. Furthermore, not all described functions are included in older rmware versions. You can download the latest instrument software from our homepage. A description of the update procedure is also available in the Internet.
Further setup steps are described in the operating instructions manu­al "DTM Collection/PACTware" attached to each DTM Collection and which can also be downloaded from the Internet. Detailed descrip­tions are available in the online help of PACTware and the DTMs.
Fig. 36: Example of a DTM view
All device DTMs are available as a free-of-charge standard version and as a full version that must be purchased. In the standard version, all functions for complete setup are already included. An assistant for simple project conguration simplies the adjustment considerably. Saving/printing the project as well as import/export functions are also part of the standard version.
In the full version there is also an extended print function for complete project documentation as well as a save function for measured value

8 Maintenanceandfaultrectication
8.1 Maintenance
If the instrument is used properly, no special maintenance is required in normal operation.
8.2 Rectifyfaults
The operator of the system is responsible for taking suitable meas­ures to rectify faults.
VEGAPULS 61 oers maximum reliability. Nevertheless, faults can occur during operation. These may be caused by the following, e.g.:
•
Sensor
•
Process
•
Voltage supply
•
Signal processing
The rst measures to be taken are to check the output signals as well as to evaluate the error messages via the display and adjustment module. The procedure is described below. Further comprehensive diagnostics can be carried out on a PC with the software PACTware and the suitable DTM. In many cases, the causes can be determined and the faults rectied this way.
Should these measures not be successful, please call in urgent cases the VEGA service hotline under the phone no. +49 1805 858550.
The hotline is manned 7 days a week round-the-clock. Since we oer this service worldwide, the support is only available in the English language. The service is free, only standard call charges are incurred.
The following table describes possible errors and helps to remove
them:
Error Cause Rectication
When an addi­tional instrument is connected, the segment fails.
Max. supply current of the seg­ment coupler exceeded
Measure the current consumption, re­duce size of segment
Wrong pres-
entation of the measured value in
Simatic S5
Simatic S5 cannot interpret the num-
ber format IEEE of the measured value
Insert converting component from Sie-
mens
In Simatic S7 the
measured value is always present­ed as 0
Only four bytes are consistently loaded in the PLC
Use function component SFC 14 to load 5 bytes consistently

E013 no measured value
available
– Sensor in boot phase – Sensor does not nd an echo, e.g.
due to faulty installation or wrong parameter adjustment
E017 Adjustment span too
small
– Carry out a fresh adjustment and
increase the distance between min. and max. adjustment
E036 no operable sensor
software
– Carry out a software update or send
instrument for repair
E041, E042, E043
Hardware error, elec­tronics defective
– Exchange the instrument or send it
in for repair
E113 Communication con-
ict
– Exchange the instrument or send it
in for repair
Depending on the reason for the fault and the measures taken, the steps described in chapter "Set up" may have to be carried out again.
8.3 Exchanging the electronics module
If the electronics module is defective, it can be replaced by the user. In Ex applications, only instruments and electronics modules with ap-
propriate Ex approval may be used.

If there is no electronics module available on site, one can be ordered from the VEGA agency serving you.
The new electronics module must be loaded with the settings of the
sensor. These are the options:
•
At the factory by VEGA
•
Or on site by the user
In both cases, the sensor serial number is necessary. The serial num­bers are stated on the type label of the instrument, inside the housing or on the delivery note.
Information:
When loading on site, rst of all the order data must be downloaded from the Internet (see operating instructions manual "Electronics module").
The electronics modules are adapted to the respective sensor and distinguish also in the signal output or power supply.
8.4 Software update
The software version of VEGAPULS 61 can be determined as follows:
•
on the type label of the electronics
•
Via the display and adjustment module
•
via PACTware
You can view all software histories on our website www.vega.com. Make use of this advantage and get registered for update information via e-mail.
The following components are required to update the sensor soft-
ware:
•
Sensor
•
Voltage supply
•
VEGACONNECT
•
PC with PACTware
•
Current sensor software as le
At "www.vega.com/downloads" go to "Software". Select under "plics sensors and instruments", "Firmware updates" the respective instru­ment series and software version. Load the zip le via the right mouse key with "Save target as" e.g. on the desktop of your PC. Move with the right mouse key to the folder and select "Extract all". Save the extracted les, for example on the desktop.
Connect the signal conditioning instrument to power supply and provide the connection from the PC to the instrument via the interface adapter. Start PACTware and go via the menu "Project" to the VEGA project assistant. Select "USB" and "Set instruments online". Activate the project assistant with "Start". The assistant establishes the con­nection automatically and opens the parameter adjustment window "Sensor # online parameter adjustment". Connect this parameter adjustment window before you carry out further steps.

10.2 ProbusPA
Instrumentmasterle
The instrument master le (GSD) contains the characteristic data of the Probus PA instrument. These data are, e.g. the permissible transmission rates as well as information on diagnostics values and the format of the measured value outputted by the PA instrument.
A bitmap le is also provided for the Probus network planning tool. This le is installed automati­cally when the GSD le is integrated. The bitmap le is used for symbolic indication of the PA instru­ment in the conguration tool.
Ident number
Each Probus instrument gets an unambiguous ident number (ID number) from the Probus user organisation (PNO). This ID number is also included in the name of the GSD le. For VEGAPULS 61 the ID number is 0x0772(hex) and the GSD le PS__0772.GSD. Optionally to this manufacturer­specic GSD le, PNO provides also a general so-called prole-specic GSD le. For VEGAPULS 61 you have to use the general GSD le PA139700.GSD. If the general GSD le is used, the sensor must be set to the prole-specic ident number via the DTM software. By default, the sensor oper­ates with the manufacturer-specic ID number.
Cyclicaldatatrac
The master class 1 (e.g. PLC) cyclically reads out measured values from the sensor during opera­tion. The below block diagram below shows which data can be accessed by the PLC.

Module of the PA sensors
For the cyclic data trac, VEGAPULS 61 provides the following modules:
•
AI (PA-OUT)
– PA-OUT value of the FB1 after scaling
•
Additional Cyclic Value
– Additional cyclical value (depending on the source)
•
Free Place – This module must be used if a value in the data telegram of the cyclical data trac should not
be used (e.g. replacement of temperature and Additional Cyclic Value)
Max. two modules can be active. By means of the conguration software of the Probus master, you can determine the conguration of the cyclical data telegram with these modules. The procedure depends on the respective conguration software.
Note:
The modules are available in two versions:
•
Short for Probus master supporting only one "Identier Format" byte, e.g. Allen Bradley
•
Long for Probus master only supporting the "Identier Format" byte, e.g. Siemens
