The differences are isted in the respective sections of this operating instructions manua. The scope of deivery encompasses: VEGAPULS 63 radar sensor Documentation - this operating instructions manua - Operating instructions manua "Indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM" (optiona) - Suppementary instructions manua "Heating for indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM" (optiona) - Suppementary instructions manua "Pug connector for continuousy measuring sensors" (optiona) - Ex-specific "Safety instructions" (with Ex-versions) - if necessary, further certificates VEGAPULS 63 consists of the foowing components: Process fitting with fange Housing with eectronics, optionay avaiabe with pug connector, optionay avaiabe with connection cabe Housing cover, optionay avaiabe with indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM The components are avaiabe in different versions. 10 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

11 Product description Fig. 1: VEGAPULS 63, fange version with pastic housing 1 Housing cover with integrated PLICSCOM (optiona) 2 Housing with eectronics 3 Process fitting with encapsuated antenna system 3.2 Principe of operation Area of appication Functiona principe VEGAPULS 63 is a radar sensor in K-band technoogy (emitting frequency approx. 26 GHz) for continuous eve measurement. It is particuary suitabe for sma vesses that contain aggressive iquids under easy process conditions. The eectronics version "Increased sensitivity" enabes the use of VEGAPULS 63 aso in appications with very bad refective properties or products with ow e r vaue. The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar puses with a duration of approx. 1 ns. These puses are refected by the product and received by the antenna as echoes. The running time of the radar puses from emission to reception is proportiona to the distance and hence to the eve. The determined eve is converted into an appropriate output signa and outputted as measured vaue. Power suppy and bus communication Power is suppied via the H1 Fiedbus. A two-wire cabe according to Fiedbus specification serves as carrier of both power and digita data signas for mutipe sensors. This cabe can be operated in two versions: via an H1 interface card in the contro system and additiona power suppy via a inking device with HSE (High speed Ethernet) and additiona votage suppy according to IEC VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 11

12 Product description DD/CFF The DD (Device Descriptions) and CFF (capabiity fies) necessary for panning and configuration of your FF (Foundation Fiedbus) communication network are avaiabe in the downoad area of the VEGA homepage under "Services - Downoads - Software - Foundation Fiedbus". The appropriate certificates are aso avaiabe there. ACDwith the appropriate fies and certificates can be ordered via e-mai under info@de.vega.com or by phone from one of the VEGA agencies under the order number "DRIVER.S". The backight of the indicating and adjustment modue is powered by the sensor. Requirement is a certain height of the suppy votage. The data for power suppy are stated in chapter "Technica data" in the "Suppement". This function is avaiabe for instruments with nationa approvas such as e.g. according to CSA ony at a ater date. The optiona heating requires its own power suppy. You can find detaied information in the suppementary instructions manua "Heating for indicating and adjustment modue". This function is generay not avaiabe for approved instruments. Packaging 3.3 Operation VEGAPULS 63 can be adjusted with different adjustment media: with the indicating and adjustment modue with the suitabe VEGA DTM in conjunction with an adjustment software according to the FDT/DTM standard, e.g. PACTware and PC a configuration too The entered parameters are generay saved in VEGAPULS 63, optionay aso in the indicating and adjustment modue or in PACTware. 3.4 Storage and transport Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its capacity to hande norma oads during transport is assured by a test according to DIN EN VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

14 Mounting 4 Mounting 4.1 Genera instructions Instaation position Moisture Seect an instaation position you can easiy reach for mounting and connecting as we as ater retrofitting of an indicating and adjustment modue. The housing can be rotated by 330 without the use of any toos. You can aso insta the indicating and adjustment modue in four different positions (each dispaced by 90 ). Use the recommended cabes (see chapter "Connecting to power suppy") and tighten the cabe gand. You can give your VEGAPULS 63 additiona protection against moisture penetration by eading the connection cabe downward in front of the cabe entry. Rain and condensation water can thus drain off. This appies mainy to mounting outdoors, in areas where moisture is expected (e.g. by ceaning processes) or on cooed or heated vesses. Fig. 2: Measures against moisture penetration Measuring range The reference pane for the measuring range of the sensors is the ower edge of the fange. Information: If the medium reaches the antenna, buidup can form on it and cause fauty measurements ater on. 14 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

You can find the specifications in chapter "Technica data" in the "Suppement". 4.2 Mounting instructions Torque of the fange screws The fange screws of VEGAPULS 63 must be aways screwed with the torque stated in the technica data so that the PTFE washer of the encapsuated antenna system seas. Instaation position When mounting VEGAPULS 63, keep a distance of at east 200 mm (7.874 in) to the vesse wa. If the sensor is instaed in the center of dished or round vesse tops, mutipe echoes can arise. These can, however, be suppressed by an appropriate adjustment (see "Setup"). If this distance cannot be maintained, a fase echo storage shoud be carried out during setup. This appies particuary if buidup on the vesse wa is expected. In such case, we recommend repeating the fase echo storage ater on with existing buidup. VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 15

16 Mounting 1 2 > 200 mm Fig. 4: Mounting on round vesse tops 1 Reference pane 2 Vesse center or symmetry axis In vesses with conica bottom it can be advantageous to mount the sensor in the center of the vesse, as measurement is then possibe down to the owest point of the vesse bottom. Fig. 5: Vesse with conica bottom Infowing medium Do not mount the instruments in or above the fiing stream. Make sure that you detect the product surface and not the infowing product. 16 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

17 Mounting Fig. 6: Infowing iquid Socket Fush mounting The optimum instaation ocation of the sensor, aso in respect to the ceanabiity, is fush on a bock fange (fange without socket piece) or with hygienic fittings, e.g. Neumo Biocontro. Mounting on socket If the refective properties of the medium are good, you can mount VEGAPULS 63 on a socket piece. You wi find recommended vaues for socket heights in the foowing iustration. The socket end shoud be smooth and burr-free, if possibe aso rounded. Then carry out a fase echo storage. h max. d d 50 mm/2" 80 mm/3" 100 mm/4" 150 mm/6" h max. 100 mm 150 mm 250 mm 400 mm Fig. 7: Deviating socket dimensions VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 17

18 Mounting Sensor orientation Direct the sensor in iquids as perpendicuar as possibe to the product surface to achieve optimum measurement resuts. Fig. 8: Orientation in iquids Vesse instaations The mounting ocation of the radar sensor shoud be a pace where no other equipment or fixtures cross the path of the microwave signas. Vesse instaations such as, for exampe, adders, imit switches, heating spiras, struts, etc. can cause fase echoes that get superimposed on the usefu echo. Make sure when panning your measuring site that the radar sensor has a "cear view" to the measured product. In case of existing vesse instaations, a fase echo storage shoud be carried out during setup. If arge vesse instaations such as struts or supports cause fase echoes, these can be attenuated through suppementary measures. Sma, incined sheet meta baffes above the instaations scatter the radar signas and prevent direct interfering refections. Agitators Fig. 9: Cover smooth profies with defectors If there are agitators in the vesse, a fase echo storage shoud be carried out with the agitators in motion. This ensures that the interfering refections from the agitators are saved with the bades in different positions. 18 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

19 Mounting Fig. 10: Agitators Foam generation Measurement in the standpipe (surge or bypass tube) Through the action of fiing, stirring and other processes in the vesse, dense foams which consideraby damp the emitted signas may form on the product surface. If foams ead to measurement errors, you shoud use the biggest possibe radar antennas and ow frequency radar sensors, e.g. VEGAPULS 65, 66 (C-band). VEGAFLEX sensors with guided microwaves are not infuenced by foam generation and are particuary suitabe for such appications. By using a standpipe, the infuence of vesse instaations and turbuence can be excuded. Under these prerequisites, the measurement of products with ow dieectric vaues (from DK vaue 1.6) is possibe. Surge or bypass tubes must extend a the way down to the requested min. eve, as measurement is ony possibe within the tube. Surge pipe Make sure you provide the necessary upper vent hoe in the surge pipe. The hoe must be aigned so that it and the poarisation marking on the sensor are in the same pane (see iustration: "Pipe antenna system in a tank"). VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 19

20 Mounting max. 1 2 min. Fig. 11: Pipe antenna system in a tank. The vent hoe in the surge pipe must be in one pane with the poarisation marking on the sensor. 1 Marking of the poarisation direction 2 Vent hode max. ø 5 mm (0.2 in) If possibe, the antenna diameter of the sensor shoud correspond to the inner diameter of the tube. With VEGAPULS 63 this is approx. 40 mm (1.575 in). The sensor can be used with tube diameters between mm ( in). Bypass tube As an aternative to the surge pipe in the vesse, a pipe system can be mounted outside of the vesse as a bypass tube. For setup, seect the function "Bypass tube". Aign the sensor in such a way that the poarisation marking on the process fitting is in the same pane as the tube hoes or the tube connection openings (see iustration: "VEGAPULS in a bypass tube"). 20 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

21 Mounting 100% > 300 mm 1 0% Fig. 12: VEGAPULS 63 in a bypass tube. The poarisation marking on the process fitting must be in one pane to the tube hoes or the tube connection openings. 1 Marking of the poarisation direction When the sensor is mounted on a bypass tube, the distance from VEGAPULS 63 to the upper tube connection shoud be approx. 300 mm ( in) or more. In case of extremey rough tube inner was, you shoud use an inserted tube (tube in tube) or a radar sensor with tube antenna. Information: With VEGAPULS 63 in fange version, the poarisation eve is aways in the center between two fange hoes. VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 21

22 Connecting to power suppy 5 Connecting to power suppy 5.1 Preparing the connection Note safety instructions Take note of safety instructions for Ex appications Seect power suppy Seecting connection cabe Cabe gand ½ NPT Aways keep in mind the foowing safety instructions: Connect ony in the compete absence of ine votage If overvotage surges are expected, overvotage arresters shoud be instaed according to Foundation Fiedbus specification In hazardous areas you shoud take note of the appropriate reguations, conformity and type approva certificates of the sensors and power suppy units. VEGAPULS 63 requires a suppy votage of 9 32 VDC. Power and the digita bus signa are carried on the same twowire connection cabe. Power is suppied via the H1 power suppy. VEGAPULS 63 is connected with screened cabe according to Fiedbus specification. A cabe diameter of 5 9 mm ensures the sea effect of the cabe gand. Make sure that the entire instaation is carried out according to the Fiedbus specification. In particuar, make sure that the termination of the bus is done with appropriate terminating resistors. On VEGAPULS 63 with cabe gand ½ NPT and pastic housing, a meta ½" threaded insert is mouded in the pastic housing. Caution: No grease shoud be used when screwing the NPT cabe gand or stee tube into the threaded insert. Standard grease can contain additives that corrode the connection between threaded insert and housing. This woud infuence the stabiity of the connection and the tightness of the housing. Cabe screening and grounding In systems with potentia equaisation, connect the cabe screen directy to ground potentia at the power suppy unit, in the connection box and at the sensor. The screen in the sensor must be connected directy to the interna ground termina. The ground termina outside on the housing must be connected to the potentia equaisation (ow impedance). 22 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

23 Connecting to power suppy In systems without potentia equaisation, connect the cabe screen directy to ground potentia at the power suppy unit and at the sensor. In the connection box or T-distributor, the screen of the short stub to the sensor must not be connected to ground potentia or to another cabe screen. The cabe screens to the power suppy unit and to the next distributor must be connected to each other and aso connected to ground potentia via a ceramic capacitor (e.g. 1 nf, 1500 V). The ow frequency potentia equaisation currents are thus suppressed, but the protective effect against high frequency interference signas remains. The tota capacitance of the cabe and of a capacitors must not exceed 10 nf in Ex appications. Seect connection cabe for Ex appications Take note of the corresponding instaation reguations for Ex appications. In particuar, make sure that no potentia equaisation currents fow over the cabe screen. In case of grounding on both sides this can be achieved by the use of a capacitor or a separate potentia equaisation. 5.2 Connection steps - Instrument housing Proceed as foows: 1 Unscrew the housing cover 2 If an indicating and adjustment modue is instaed, remove it by turning it sighty to the eft. 3 Loosen compression nut of the cabe entry 4 Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cabe mante, strip approx. 1 cm (0.4 in) insuation from the ends of the individua wires 5 Insert the cabe into the sensor through the cabe entry 6 Lift the opening evers of the terminas with a screwdriver (see foowing iustration) 7 Insert the wire ends into the open terminas according to the wiring pan VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 23

34 Set up with the indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM 6.4 Setup procedure Parameter adjustment As VEGAPULS 63 is a distance measuring instrument, the distance from the sensor to the product surface is measured. To have the rea product eve dispayed, an aocation of the measured distance to the percentage height must be made. To carry out this adjustment, the distance is entered with fu and empty vesse. If these vaues are not known, an adjustment with the distance vaues, e.g. 10 % and 90 % is aso possibe. Starting point for these distance specifications is aways the sea surface of the thread or fange. With these settings, the rea eve is cacuated. Furthermore the operating range of the sensor is imited from maximum to the required range. The rea product eve during this adjustment is not important, because the min./max. adjustment is aways carried out without changing the product eve. These settings can be made ahead of time without the instrument having to be instaed. Caution: If there is a separation of iquids with different dieectric vaues in the vesse, e.g. from condensation, VEGAPULS 63 can detect under certain circumstances ony the medium with the higher dieectric vaue. Keep in mind that interfaces can cause fauty measurements. If you want to measure the tota height of both iquids reiaby, pease contact our service department or use an instrument speciay designed for interface measurement. In the main menu item "Basic adjustment", the individua submenu items shoud be seected one after the other and provided with the correct parameter vaues. Start your parameter adjustment with the foowing menu items of the basic adjustment: Carrying out min. adjustment Proceed as foows: 1 Move from the measured vaue dispay to the main menu by pushing [OK].

Keep in mind that the max. eve must ie beow the dead band. 3 Save the settings with [OK] and move to "Medium seection" with [->]. Each product has different refective properties. In addition, there are various interfering factors which have to be taken into account: agitated product surfaces and foam generation (with iquids); dust generation, materia cones and echoes from the vesse wa (with soids). To adapt the sensor to these different conditions, you shoud first seect "Liquid" or "Soid". VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 35

36 Set up with the indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM Medium Liquid Information: With VEGAPULS 63 with eectronics version "Increased safety", "Soid" is preset as factory setting. However, the instrument shoud be used preferaby in iquids. In such cases, the medium seection shoud be set to "Liquid" during setup. According to the conductivity and the dieectric vaue of iquids, the refection properties can differ consideraby. Therefore additiona options such as "Sovent", "Chem. mixture" and "Water based" are offered beow the menu item Liquid. With soids, you can aso choose between "Powder/Dust", "Granuar/Peets" or "Baast/Pebbes". Through this additiona seection, the sensor is adapted perfecty to the product and measurement reiabiity, particuary in products with bad refective properties, is consideraby increased. Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key. Vesse form Apart from the medium, the vesse shape can aso infuence the measurement. To adapt the sensor to these measuring conditions, this menu item offers different options depending on whether iquid or soid is seected. With "Liquids" these are "Storage tank", "Stiing tube", "Open vesse" or "Stirred vesse", with "Soid", "Sio" or "Bunker". Vesse form Storage tank Information: With VEGAPULS 63 with eectronics version "Increased safety", "Soid" is preset as factory setting. However, the instrument shoud be used preferaby in iquids. In such cases, the vesse form shoud be set to "Storage tank" during setup. Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key. 36 VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus

37 Set up with the indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM Linearisation curve A inearization is necessary for a vesses in which the vesse voume does not increase ineary with the eve - e.g. with a cyindrica or spherica tank - and the indication or output of the voume is required. Corresponding inearization curves are preprogrammed for these vesses. They represent the correation between the eve percentage and vesse voume. By activating the appropriate curve, the voume percentage of the vesse is dispayed correcty. If the voume shoud not be dispayed in percent but e.g. in or kg, a scaing can be aso set in the menu item "Dispay". Linearisation curve inear Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save your settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key. Gating out of fase signas High sockets or vesse instaations, such as e.g. struts or agitators as we as buidup and wed joints on the vesse was cause interfering refections which can impair the measurement. A fase echo storage detects and marks these fase echoes, so that they are no onger taken into account for the eve measurement. A fase echo memory shoud be created with empty vesse so that a potentia interfering refections wi be detected. Gating out of fase signas Change now? Proceed as foows: 1 Move from the measured vaue dispay to the main menu by pushing [OK]. 2 Seect the menu item "Service" with [->] and confirm with [OK]. Now the menu item "Fase signa suppression" is dispayed. 3 Confirm "Fase signa suppression - Change now" with [OK] and seect in the beow menu "Create new". Enter the actua distance from the sensor to the product surface. A fase signas in this area are detected by the sensor and saved after confirming with [OK]. VEGAPULS 63 - Foundation Fiedbus 37

38 Set up with the indicating and adjustment modue PLICSCOM Note: Check the distance to the product surface, because if an incorrect (too arge) vaue is entered, the existing eve wi be saved as fase signa.
