3.2 Principle of operationThe radar sensor VEGAPULS WL 61 is the ideal sensor for all appli-cations in the water and waste water industry. It is particularly suitable for level measurement in water treatment, in pump stations as well as stormwateroverflowtanks,forflowmeasurementinopenflumesandfor gauge measurement.
The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with a durationofapprox.1ns.Thesepulsesarereflectedbytheproductand received by the antenna as echoes. The transit time of the radar pulses from emission to reception is proportional to the distance and hence to the level. The determined level is converted into an appropri-ate output signal and outputted as measured value.
3.3 Packaging, transport and storageYour instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test based on ISO 4180.The packaging of standard instruments consists of environment-friendly, recyclable cardboard. For special versions, PE foam or PE foil is also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised recycling companies.
Transport must be carried out in due consideration of the notes on the transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause damage to the device.

When mounting the sensor, keep a distance of at least 200 mm (7.874 in) to the vessel wall. If the sensor is installed in the center of dished or round vessel tops, multiple echoes can arise. These can, however, be suppressed by an appropriate adjustment (see chapter "Setup").If you cannot maintain this distance, you should carry out a false signal storage during setup. This applies particularly if buildup on the vessel wall is expected. In such cases, we recommend repeating the false signal storage at a later date with existing buildup.
> 200 mm(7.87")

In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the sensor in the center of the vessel, as measurement is then possible down to the lowest point of the vessel bottom.

Direct the sensor as perpendicular as possible to the product surface to achieve optimum measurement results.
Fig. 14: Orientation of the sensor
The mounting location of the radar sensor should be a place where no otherequipmentorfixturescrossthepathoftheradarsignals.Vessel installations, such as e.g. ladders, limit switches, heating spi-rals, struts, etc., can cause false echoes and impair the useful echo. Make sure when planning your measuring point that the radar sensor has a "clear view" to the measured product.In case of existing vessel installations, a false echo storage should be carried out during setup.

6.1 DD adjustment programsDevice descriptions as Enhanced Device Description (EDD) are available for DD adjustment programs such as, for example, AMS™ and PDM.Thefilescanbedownloadedatwww.vega.com/downloads under "Software".
6.2 Field Communicator 375, 475Device descriptions for the instrument are available as EDD for pa-rameter adjustment with the Field Communicator 375 or 475.For the integration of the EDD in the Field Communicator 375 or 475, the software "Easy Upgrade Utility" is required which is available from the manufacturer. This software is updated via the Internet and new EDDs are automatically taken over into the device catalogue of this software after they are released by the manufacturer. They can then be transferred to a Field Communicator.
6.3 AdjustmentSince a radar sensor is a distance measuring instrument, the distance from the sensor to the product surface is measured. For indication of the real level, an allocation of the measured distance to the percent-age height must be carried out. To perform the adjustment, enter the distance with full and empty vessel, see the following example:

7 Diagnosis, asset management and service
7.1 MaintenanceIf the instrument is used correctly, no maintenance is required in normal operation.
7.2 Measured value and event memoryThe instrument has several memories which are available for diagnostic purposes. The data remain there even in case of voltage interruption.
Up to 100,000 measured values can be stored in the sensor in a ring memory. Each entry contains date/time as well as the respective measured value. Storable values are for example:
• Distance• Filling height• Percentage value• Lin. percent• Scaled• Current value• Meas. certainty• Electronics temperature
When the instrument is shipped, the measured value memory is active and stores distance, measurement certainty and electronics temperature every 3 minutes.The requested values and recording conditions are set via a PC with PACTware/DTM or the control system with EDD. Data are thus read out and also reset.
Up to 500 events are automatically stored with a time stamp in the sensor (non-deletable). Each entry contains date/time, event type, event description and value. Event types are for example:
• Modificationofaparameter• Switch-onandswitch-offtimes• Status messages (according to NE 107)• Error messages (according to NE 107)
The data are read out via a PC with PACTware/DTM or the control system with EDD.
The echo curves are stored with date and time and the corresponding echo data. The memory is divided into two sections:Echo curve of the setup: This is used as reference echo curve for the measurement conditions during setup. Changes in the measure-ment conditions during operation or buildup on the sensor can thus berecognized.Theechocurveofthesetupisstoredvia:

7.3 Asset Management functionThe instrument features self-monitoring and diagnostics according to NE 107 and VDI/VDE 2650. In addition to the status messages in the following tables, detailed error messages are available under menu item "Diagnostics" via the display and adjustment module, PACTware/DTM and EDD.
The status messages are divided into the following categories:
• Failure• Function check• Outofspecification• Maintenance requirement
and explained by pictographs:
41 2 3Fig. 20: Pictographs of the status messages1 Failure - red2 Out of specification - yellow3 Function check - orange4 Maintenance - blue
Failure: Due to a malfunction in the instrument, a failure message is outputted.This status message is always active.

Function block Output SplitterThe function block "Output Splitter" generates two control outputs out of one input. Each output is a linear image of a part of the input. A retrograde calculation function is realised by using the linear imaging function inversely. A cascading of several Output Splitters is supported by an integrated decision table for the combinability of inputs and outputs.

Function block Signal CharacterizerThe function block "Signal Characterizer" has two channels the outputs of which are not in linear relationwiththerespectiveinput.Thenon-linearrelationisdefinedbyalook-uptablewithindividu-ally selectable x/y-pairs. The respective input signal is imaged on the corresponding output, hence this function block can be used in a control loop or signal path. Optionally the function axis can be exchanged in channel 2 so that the block can be also used in a reverse control loop.
