80 GHz radar now gets Bluetooth
with Ex approval
VEGA Bluetooth communications have been a standard option
across the whole range of plics® transmitters since March this year
and it is also backward compatible to all sensors supplied since
2002. It features secure 64 bit encryption and pairing using Apps
or PC USB dongle via PACTware. Up until now, it has only been
available for safe area devices.
Adding yet another new
option for the new 80 GHz
radar level sensors VEGAPULS
64 (liquids) and 69 (bulk
solids), they have added ATEX
/ IECEx: Ex ia, Ex ia/t (Dust)
FM: OL, XP, DIP approvals.
This enables the easy set
up and sensor management
using EX capable tablets and
smartphones, run by Android,
with Bluetooth 4.0 via the
VEGA TOOLS App. They can also be operated via a magnetic pen
through a window. This range of product compatibility and dual
capability is yet another world first from VEGA.
This option means ‘hot work’ permits may not be needed, as no
covers are removed or wires connected to sensors or signal cables.
Engineers can work from safer locations, possibly even outside
clean rooms in electronics, pharma and food industries, saving
time and increasing safety. For more details about this exciting
innovation, please look under Wireless Adjustment at
