3.2 Principle of operation
The VEGAPOINT 11 is a capacitive point level sensor for point level
detection
It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
can be used in water-based liquids.
Typicalapplicationsareoverllanddryrunprotection.Withathe
small sensor unit, VEGAPOINT 11 can be also mounted e.g. in thin
pipelines. The sensor allows use in vessels, tanks and pipes. Thanks
to its simple and robust measuring system, VEGAPOINT 11 is virtual-
lyunaectedbythechemicalandphysicalpropertiesofthemedium.
