26
VEGAPOINT 21
Water based media (more than 10% water) | & oils and sticky media
27
VEGAPOINT 31
Bulk solids
28
Difference between VEGAPOINT 21 & VEGAPOINT 31
Factory programming 21 set up for liquids 31 set up for solids You can use 31 to measure liquids and 21 for solids - this is just for customers when ordering online
29
VEGAPOINT series 10
``` Can be used in 100C (212F environment) ultra compact no adjustment No Bluetooth only threaded connection light ring is output ```
30
VEGAPOINT series 20, 30
Can be used in 115C (239F environment) Adjustable with PACTware the VEGA Tools app or IO-Link version with extended switch point up to 3ft includes temperature sensor - you can look up process temperature ISO 4400 Available
31
Our customer wants to measure maple syrup which instruments should we suggest?
VEGASWING 51 - not good with sticky product VEGAPOINT 11 - will work, but may not account for buildup VEGAPOINT 21 - Definitely will work VEGAPOINT 23 - Definitely will work VEGAPOINT 31 - preset from factory for solids
32
VEGASWING or VEGAPOINT Measure Liquids
VEGASWING - plug and play | VEGAPOINT - with adjustment
33
VEGASWING or VEGAPOINT Bulk or solids
ONLY VEGAPOINT | NO VEGASWING
34
VEGASWING or VEGAPOINT Adjustment can be ordered "customer - specific"
``` ONLY VEGAPOINT (TopVis configuration) NO VEGASWING ```
