Measurement Principle
The VEGAVIB 61 operates on a vibrating rod principle where a piezoelectric crystal energizes the vibrating rod at a fixed amplitude. When the rod becomes covered by product, the amplitude change is detected by integrated electronics and converted into a switch signal. The switching condition is clearly visible via a two-color LED indicator, providing immediate visual feedback without requiring special adjustments.
