Working Principle
High frequency microwave pulses are guided along a steel probe or rod that is submerged into the liquid or solid. The waves are then reflected as they hit the product surface and is sent back into the sensor.
The flight time of the signal is calculated (between sending and detecting time), and is directly proportional to the level.
Models/Options:
- Probe options: Wire rope (up to 32m), Rod, Co-axial
- Temperature up to 450°C
- Pressure up to 100 bar
Appllications:
Volatile liquids, foamy liquids, viscous liquids, boiling and foaming liquids, crude oil tanks.
Abbrasive/aggresive liquid level measurement application in chemical,and pharmaceutical industries, food and plastic industries, power plants, oil and cement factories.
Water, paint, acid, animal fat, and oil tanks. Grain, salt, and sawdust silos, to name a few.
