The solution

The strict hygienic regulations on pure steam generators and steam autoclaves make continuous operation necessary. Reliable detection of the level of the process water is thus very important for proper functioning.

Telstar relies on VEGAFLEX 83 for precise level measurement in the steam generator. The TDR sensor detects the level of the process water in the bypass tube of the steam generator. The analogue level data are adapted to the various switching points and level alarms via the control system (HMI). 
Unlike float gauges or magnetic measuring systems, guided radar requires no additional components and does not have to be mechanically adjusted. 

Compared to float solutions, VEGAFLEX offers crucial advantages, especially in media with fast changing levels.
