Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays


High-tech menu-driven HMI with graphics for instruments

May 2003 Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

The leading global manufacturer of radar level devices has recently announced a world first in process control. Already with over 60 000 radar level units installed worldwide, a further step has been achieved with the introduction of this new technology.

In line with its strategy of constantly developing, simplifying and optimising products, the German manufacturer Vega has recently introduced PLICSCOM. This is a state-of-the-art module that can be inserted into the housing of the instrument to offer clear, concise display readings. Set-up, operation and service have been made easy and navigation is simplified by a clear menu structure with graphics.

Vega has always worked closely with its customers' needs, as was the case with the introduction of the intrinsically safe two-wire technology of its sensor radar. Software development has also been given due attention, with particular care paid to logical configuration and easy serviceability. Vega offers 'tailored technology' with pioneering products and services for the level measurement industry.
