3.2 |
Principle of operation |
Application area |
The VEGAMET 841 controller feeds the connected 4 … 20 mA |
||
|
|
sensor, processes the measured values and displays them. A large |
|
|
|
display for data visualisation is integrated in the housing designed for |
|
|
|
rough field conditions. |
|
|
|
It enables simple implementation of pump controls, flow measure- |
|
|
|
ments on open channels and weirs and totalizers. With the VEGAMET |
|
|
|
841, limit values can be reliably monitored and relays can be |
|
|
|
switched, e.g.for an overfill protection according toWHG. |
|
|
|
Due to its various possibilities it is suitable for many industrial |
|
|
|
branches. |
|
Functional principle |
The VEGAMET 841 controller can power the connected sensor and |
||
|
|
process its measurement signals. The requested parameter is shown |
|
|
|
on the display and also output to the integrated current output for fur- |
|
|
|
ther processing. The measurement signal can thus be transferred to a |
|
|
|
remote display or a superordinate control system. Operating relays for |
|
|
|
control of pumps or other devices are also integrated. |
|
|
|
3.3 |
Adjustment |
Local adjustment |
On-site adjustment of the device is carried out via the integrated |
||
|
|
display and adjustment unit. |
Wireless adjustment The optionally integrated Bluetooth module enables in addition a wireless adjustment of VEGAMET 841 via standard adjustment tool:
•Smartphone/tablet (iOS or Android operating system)
•PC/notebook with Bluetooth LE or Bluetooth USB adapter (Windows operating system)
Information:
Certain setting options are not possible or only possible to a limited extent with the integrated display and adjustment unit, for example the settings for flow measurement or pump control.For these applications, the use of PACTware/DTM or the VEGA Tools app is recommended. An overview of the available applications and functions as well as their adjustment options can be found in the appendix.

Safety instructions
Voltage supply
Connection cable
Cable glands
5 Connecting to power supply
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
•The electrical connection must only be carried out by trained, qualified personnel authorised by the plant operator.
•If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should be installed.
Warning:
Only connect or disconnect in de-energized state.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter " Technical data".
The instrument belongs to protection class I, hence connection of an earth conductor is required.
Use cable with round cross section. The cable diameter must be suitable for the cable gland used to ensure the seal effect of the cable gland (IP protection).
The voltage supply is connected with standard cable according to the national installation standards.
Standard two-wire cable can be used to connect the sensors.
Note:
If the temperatures are too high, the cable insulation can be damaged. Hence keep apart from the ambient temperature also the selfheating of the instrument for the temperature resistance of the cable in the connection compartment in mind. 1)
When used in the USA/Canada, only cables with copper conductors may be used.
Warning:
In delivery status, all openings are fitted with dust protection caps.
These caps are only for protection during transport and are not suitable for protection during operation! Instead, all openings must be closed with cable glands/blind plugs.
Cable glands, NPT adapters or blind plugs that are not included in the scope of delivery must meet the applicable requirements in order to ensure the environmental compatibility of the housing. For outdoor applications, the weather resistance of the accessories to be used must be taken into account. The cable glands, NPT adapters and blind plugs must have a metric thread M20 to be compatible with the threaded openings of the metal plate in the housing.
Through the selection of the terminals, you can choose between active and passive operation of the sensor input.
1)With an ambient temperature ≥ 50 °C (122 °F) the connection cable should be suitable for an ambient temperature which is at least 20 °C (36 °F) higher.
VEGAMET 841 • 4 … 20 mA |

5 Connecting to power supply
•In active mode, the controller provides the power for the connected sensors. Power and measurement data are transmitted over the same two-wire cable. This mode is provided for connection of measuring transducers without separate power supply (sensors in two-wire version).
•In passive mode the sensors are not powered, only the measured value is transmitted. This input is for connection of transmitters with their own separate voltage supply (sensors in four-wire version). The VEGAMET 841 can also be looped into the existing circuit like a normal ammeter.
Note:
With a VEGAMET 841 in Ex version, the passive input is not available.
5.3Connecting
Connection technology The voltage supply and inputs and outputs are connected via the spring-loaded terminals.
Information:
Solid cores as well as flexible cores with wire end sleeves are
inserted directly into the terminal openings.In case of flexible cores without end sleeves, a small screwdriver must be pressed into the rectangular opening so that the terminal opening is then free. When the screwdriver is pulled out, the terminals are closed again.
You can find further information on the max.wire cross-section in the technical data.

Access protection |
|
|
|
|
6.1 |
Bluetooth radio interface |
|
|
|
|
|
Devices with a Bluetooth radio interface are protected against un- |
|
|
|
|
|
wanted access from outside. This means that only authorized persons |
|
|
|
|
|
can receive measured and status values and change device settings |
|
|
|
|
|
via this interface. |
|
|
|
|
|
Information: |
|
|
|
|
|
If no Bluetooth connection to the device should be possible, Bluetooth |
|
|
|
|
|
communication can be deactivated. Access via app or DTM is thus no |
|
|
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
|
longer possible. The Bluetooth function can be deactivated/activated |
|
|
|
|
|
in the menu item " Extended functions" under " Access protection - |
|
|
|
|
|
Bluetooth communication". |
|
Bluetooth access code |
|
A Bluetooth access code is required to establish Bluetooth com- |
|||
|
|
|
|
munication via the adjustment tool (smartphone/tablet/notebook). |
|
|
|
|
|
This code must be entered once when Bluetooth communication is |
|
|
|
|
|
established for the first time in the adjustment tool.It is then stored in |
|
|
|
|
|
the adjustment tool and does not have to be entered again. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Bluetooth access code is individual for each device. It is printed |
|
|
|
|
|
on the device housing and is also supplied with the device in the |
|
|
|
|
|
information sheet " PINs and Codes". The Bluetooth access code can |
|
|
|
|
|
also be read out via the display and adjustment unit. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Bluetooth access code can be changed by the user after the first |
|
|
|
|
|
connection is established. If the Bluetooth access code is entered |
|
|
|
|
|
incorrectly, the new entry is only possible after a waiting period has |
|
|
|
|
|
elapsed. The waiting time increases with each further incorrect entry. |
|
Emergency Bluetooth |
|
The emergency Bluetooth access code enables Bluetooth communi- |
|||
unlock code |
|
cation to be established in the event that the Bluetooth access code |
|||
|
|
|
|
is no longer known. It can't be changed. The emergency Bluetooth |
|
|
|
|
|
access code can be found in information sheet " Access protection". |
|
|
|
|
|
If this document is lost, the emergency Bluetooth access code can |
|
|
|
|
|
be retrieved from your personal contact person after legitimation. |
|
|
|
|
|
The storage and transmission of Bluetooth access codes is always |
|
|
|
|
|
encrypted (SHA 256 algorithm). |
|
|
|
|
|
6.2 Protection of the parameterization |
|
|
|
|
|
The settings (parameters) of the device can be protected against un- |
|
|
|
|
|
wanted changes. The parameter protection is deactivated on delivery, |
|
|
|
|
|
all settings can be made. |
|
Device code |
|
To protect the parameterization, the device can be locked by the user |
|||
|
|
|
|
with the aid of a freely selectable device code. The settings (param- |
|
|
|
|
|
eters) can then only be read out, but not changed. The device code |
|
|
|
|
|
is also stored in the adjustment tool. However, unlike the Bluetooth |
|
|
|
|
|
access code, it must be re-entered for each unlock. When using the |
|
|
|
|
|
adjustment app or DTM, the stored device code is then suggested to |
|
|
|
|
|
the user for unlocking. |
|
|

6 Access protection
Emergency device code The emergency device code allows unlocking the device in case the device code is no longer known. It can't be changed. The emergency device code can also be found on the supplied information sheet " Access protection". If this document is lost, the emergency device code can be retrieved from your personal contact person after legitimation. The storage and transmission of the device codes is always encrypted (SHA 256 algorithm).
If the user has a " myVEGA" account, then the Bluetooth access code as well as the device code are additionally stored in his account under " PINs and Codes".This greatly simplifies the use of additional adjustment tools, as all Bluetooth access and device codes are automatically synchronized when connected to the " myVEGA" account

7.1 Adjustment system |
|
Function |
The integrated display and adjustment unit is used for measured val- |
|
|
ue display, adjustment and diagnosis of the VEGAMET 841. Display |
|
|
and adjustment are carried out via four keys and a graphic-capable |
|
|
display with background lighting. |
|
|
Certain setting options are not possible or only possible to a limited |
|
|
extent with the integrated display and adjustment unit, for example the |
|
|
settings for flow measurement or pump control.For these applica- |
|
|
tions, the use of PACTware/DTM or the VEGA Tools app is recom- |
|
|
mended. A tabular overview of the corresponding applications and |
|
Display and adjustment |
functions can be found in the appendix. |
