VEGASWING 61 Vibrating Level Switch

Description

Overview

The VEGASWING 61 is a universal level switch for use in all liquids. Independent of the mounting position, it detects reliably with millimetre accuracy the limit level. The instrument can be used as empty or full detector, as approved overfill protection, dry run protection, or pump protection in vessels and pipelines.

As an authorized supplier of VEGA instrumentation, Seven Star LLC proudly offers the VEGASWING 61 to pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and marine industries across the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat, and the wider GCC. The VEGASWING 61 offers maximum reliability in a wide application range, with numerous process fittings, approvals, and housing/electronics versions available to suit virtually any installation.

Measurement Principle

The VEGASWING 61 uses a compact tuning fork that vibrates at its mechanical resonance frequency. When the fork becomes immersed in liquid, its resonance frequency shifts detectably, and the integrated electronics evaluates this change to output a direct switching signal. Because the switching point is determined purely by the mechanical properties of the fork rather than the electrical properties of the medium, it functions reliably regardless of pressure, temperature, foam, viscosity, or the composition of the liquid.

As a compact instrument, the VEGASWING 61 can be operated without any external evaluation system—the switching signal can directly operate a connected device such as a warning light, pump, or valve. Setup requires minimal time and cost expenditure since no calibration with the actual process medium is necessary, and the instrument can be installed in virtually any orientation as long as the fork remains unobstructed.

Engineering Design of the VEGASWING 61

The VEGASWING 61 is designed for liquids with a density greater than 0.5 to 2.5 g/cm³ and covers a process temperature range of -50°C to +250°C with a process pressure range of -1 to 64 bar. Wetted parts are available in PFA, 316L, Alloy C22, Alloy 400, ECTFE, or enamel, with an extensive range of hygienic fitting options including Clamp, Slotted Nut, Varivent, F40 compression nut, SMS, and DIN 11864-1-A/2-A connections for sanitary applications.

Housing options include plastic, aluminium, and stainless steel (precision cast or electropolished) construction, with protection ratings up to IP66/IP68 (1 bar). Output options span relay (DPDT), contactless electronic switch, transistor (NPN/PNP), two-wire, and NAMUR signal types, with the pluggable PLICSLED display module providing local status indication. The instrument carries SIL2 qualification along with WHG and VLAREM II overfill protection approvals.

Key Features

The VEGASWING 61 combines a rugged tuning-fork sensing element with universal applicability. Core capabilities include:

  • Product-independent switching point unaffected by pressure, temperature, foam, or viscosity.
  • Minimal setup time and cost—no calibration with the process medium required.
  • Process temperature -50°C to +250°C; process pressure -1 to 64 bar.
  • Multiple output types: relay, transistor, two-wire, and NAMUR.
  • SIL2 qualification with WHG-approved overfill protection.
  • Extensive hygienic fitting options for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications.
  • ATEX, FM, CSA, IECEx, and multiple marine class society approvals.
  • Compact operation without need for an external evaluation system.

Industrial Applications

The VEGASWING 61 is well suited to pharmaceutical reaction vessels, CIP cleaning agent storage tanks, fuel tanks, and general liquid storage across Oman requiring reliable point-level detection for overfill protection, dry-run protection, or pump protection. Its product-independent switching accuracy makes it a dependable choice for liquids warehousing and process applications throughout the region.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the VEGASWING 61 need to be calibrated for the specific liquid?
No. Its switching point is product-independent, so setup requires minimal time and cost without needing to calibrate with the process medium.
What liquid densities can the VEGASWING 61 detect?
It is designed for liquids with a density greater than 0.5 to 2.5 g/cmu00b3.
Can the VEGASWING 61 be used for overfill protection?
Yes. It is approved for overfill protection, dry run protection, and pump protection, and carries WHG and VLAREM II overfill protection approvals.
Does mounting position affect the VEGASWING 61 accuracy?
No. It detects the limit level reliably with millimetre accuracy independent of the mounting position.
