VEGAPULS 68
|
The VEGAPULS 68 uses electronics with increased sensitivity to achieve a strong return signal from solid materials. It is able to detect and evaluate echoes in low dielectric conditions at long ranges. It is available with a unique swivel antenna which allows for mounting to match the angle of repose created by fill or empty conditions.
The VEGAPULS 68 focuses microwave energy down to the measurement surface by using a metal horn antenna, or for very long measurements, a parabolic dish type antenna.
