Measuring principle
VEGABAR 74 and 75 pressure transmitters are specially adapted
to their respective application areas. That is why different sensor
elements and measuring units are implemented.

VEGABAR 74
The sensor element of VEGABAR 74 is the dry ceramic-capaci- Fig. 2: Configuration of the METEC® measuring cell in VEGABAR 75
tive CERTEC® measuring cell. Base element and diaphragm 1 Diaphragm Hastelloy C276
consist of high purity sapphire-ceramic®. 2 Isolating liquid (approx. 0.3 cm³, FDA-listed)
3 FeNi adapter
The process pressure causes via the diaphragm a change in an 4 CERTEC® measuring cell
electrical parameter of the measuring cell. This change is con-
verted into an appropriate output signal. The advantages of the METEC® measuring cell are:
l Completely welded, elastomer-free
The CERTEC® measuring cell is also equipped with a temper-
l Very high overload resistance
ature sensor. The temperature value can be displayed via the
l Full vacuum resistance (also with 0.1 bar measuring range)
indicating and adjustment module or processed via the signal
l Good thermo-shock reaction
output.
l Excellent long-term stability
l High degree of flushness

Wide application range
VEGABAR 74 and 75 transmitters are designed for front flush
process pressure measurement of gases, vapours and liquids.
Their application-optimised housings in IP 68 and high resistance
Fig. 1: Configuration of the CERTEC® measuring cell in VEGABAR 74 materials ensure reliable use even in harsh environments and in
1 Diaphragm extremely moist areas. Thanks to their compact configuration
2 Soldered glass bond with completely integrated electronics, the instruments can be
3 Base element
connected directly to the respective signal processing equip-
ment.
The advantages of the CERTEC® measuring cell are:
l Very high overload resistance VEGABAR 74 is best suited for use in abrasive media in the paper
l No hysteresis industry or in waste water treatment.
l Excellent long-term stability
VEGABAR 75 with its hygienic fittings is particularly suitable for
l Completely front flush installation
the food processing and pharmaceutical industries.
l Good corrosion resistance
l Very high abrasion resistance Information:

tions manuals:
VEGABAR 75
The METEC® measuring cell is the measuring unit of VEGABAR l 28432 - VEGABAR 74
75. This unit consists of a CERTEC® measuring cell and a special l 28433 - VEGABAR 75
isolating system with metallic process diaphragm. A special fea-
ture of this isolating system is the direct mechanical compensa-
tion of temperature influence.
The process pressure causes via the diaphragm a change in an
electrical parameter of the measuring cell. This change is con-
verted into an appropriate output signal.

Installation position
VEGABAR functions in any installation position. Depending on
the measuring system, the installation position can influence the
measurement. This can be compensated by a position correc-
tion.
Information:
We recommend using parts from the line of VEGA
mounting accessories.
