Radar level transmitters are available in many variants, with a range of up to 60 meters and compatibility for both two- and four-wire applications. Possessing a frequency spectrum of 76-81GHz, the WSR550 excels in demanding conditions where other level measuring technologies might fail. Because of its high frequency signal, which can better pass through foam, mist, and dust, it can provide reliable readings even in challenging environments.

Introduction to Radar level transmitter

Products in the 76-81GHz series are frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radars that handle both two- and four-wire applications and operate at 76-81GHz. There are many variants available for this product, including a 120-meter range and an 8-centimeter blind zone. Solid applications benefit greatly from its shorter wavelength and greater operating frequency. The electromagnetic wave transmission and reception mechanism via the lens offers special benefits in conditions with a lot of dust and extreme heat (over 150°C). Installation is made simple and convenient by the instrument's flange or thread connection.Radar is a technique that measures and detects using electromagnetic waves. Radar level transmitters use microwave signals sent and received to detect the distance between a liquid's surface and the sensor in order to calculate the liquid's level.Radar level transmitters are widely used in various industries for measuring the level of liquids, slurries, and solids.

Uses of Radar level
transmitter

Treatment of Water and Wastewater: Tank Level Monitoring: Maintaining ideal levels in processing and storage tanks. Tracking the flow rates in channels and weirs is known as open channel flow measurement. Gas and Oil: Tank Farm Management: Monitoring stock levels in huge storage tanks. Separator Vessels.

Application of Radar level transmitter

Water and Wastewater Treatment: For keeping an eye on the water levels in treatment facilities, reservoirs, and tanks. Gas and oil: For gauging the levels in separators, storage tanks, and other process vessels. Food and Beverage: To keep an eye on the quantities of components, fillers, and final goods.

Principle of Radar level transmitter

The guided wave radar emits high-frequency microwave pulses that travel along steel rods or cables for detection. These pulses come into contact with the media to be measured, and because the mutation’s dielectric constant causes reflections, some of the pulse energy is reflected back. The relationship between the transmitted pulse and the reflected pulse depends on the measured media’s distance and time interval.

Applications

Heating and Cooling Reactors

Heating and cooling reactors are crucial components in various industrial processes, particularly in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. These reactors are used for carrying out reactions under controlled temperature conditions.

Disinfecting and
Sterilizing

Disinfection and sterilization are critical processes across various industries, particularly in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and biotechnology. These applications ensure the elimination of harmful microorganisms.

Waste Heat Recovery Boilers

Waste heat recovery boilers are essential components in industries where significant amounts of heat are generated during various processes but are typically wasted. These boilers capture this waste heat and convert it into useful energy, thereby improving.

Dyeing WasteWater

Treatment of highly coloured wastewater containing a variety of dyes in varying quantities is a major component of wastewater treatment in the textile and dye industry.The flow of dye into the interior of the fibre as well as the interaction between a dye .

Exhaust Gas Treatment

Exhaust gas treatment systems (EGTS), also referred to as SOX scrubbers, are an alternative to these solutions that clean the exhaust gas in order to reduce SOX emissions to a level that is equivalent to the acceptable fuel sulphur
content.

Fertigation System

Fertigation is the process of injecting fertilisers into an irrigation system for the purpose of amending the soil, the water, and other water-soluble goods. Adding chemicals to an irrigation system is known as chemigation, which is connected to fertigation.
