VEGASWING 61 Vibrating Level Switch
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, covering the majority of point-level safety functions a plant needs from a single switch design.
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, from simple utility tanks to certified hygienic process vessels.
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, which is exactly why it performs reliably where capacitive or conductive switches struggle with coating buildup or low-conductivity media.
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, giving mechanical designers real flexibility on nozzle placement.
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.

Why Choose Seven Star LLC for Overfill and Dry-Run Protection Switches
Because the VEGASWING 61’s switching point depends purely on the fork’s mechanical resonance rather than the liquid’s electrical properties, it’s specified across a very wide range of media – but the wetted-part material, process temperature rating, and output signal type still need to match the actual application and control system for a safety-relevant overfill or dry-run protection loop to function correctly. Seven Star LLC’s engineers confirm wetted-part compatibility, WHG/overfill certification requirements, and output type (relay, transistor, or NAMUR) against the customer’s control system before the switch is ordered. For pharmaceutical and food-grade facilities across Oman we also confirm hygienic fitting compliance up front, and we plan spare-unit stock so a critical dry-run or overfill protection point is never left uncovered during a replacement.
