Microwave sensor efector uses radar
principle
An electronic level sensor for small tanks in industrial automationmeasures the level using electromagnetic pulses in the nanosecond range.
IFM Electronic has introduced the microwave sensor efector gwr, which is an electronic level sensor for small tanks used in industrial automation The efector gwr uses a technique based on guided wave radar practice
The control monitor uses electromagnetic pulses in the nanosecond range to measure level.
T he sensor head transmits the pulses and guides them along the probe.
If the microwave pulse hits the medium to be detected, it is reflected, guided back to the sensor and evaluated.
The probe is available in three lengths: 240, 450 and 700mm.
The sensor is directly installed in the tank via the process connection or a flange.
The probe can be easily shortened (cut) and adapted to the tank by the user.
Setting of all parameters as well as programming of the switch points and indication of the current level are carried out via a 4-digit alphanumeric display. Request a free brochure from IFM Electronic ...
