Radar sensor for continuous level measurement of bulk solids
All-round radar instrument with 80 GHz – the frequency of the future
Application area
Special advantages are the small process fittings for small vessels or tight spaces. The very good signal focusing allows use in large silos or vessels with many internal installations.
The VEGAPULS 69 is a sensor for continuous measurement of bulk solids under different process conditions. It is ideal for level measurement in very high silos, large bunkers and segmented vessels. Thanks to the very good signal focussing a simple setup and reliable measurement is ensured. The VEGAPULS 69 can be equipped with an encapsulated plastic antenna or a lens antenna integrated in the metal flange. This enables the optimum adaption to different application areas.
Your benefit
- High plant availability, because wear and maintenance-free
- Maintenance-free operation through non-contact measuring principle
-
Reliable measurement independent of vapour, dust and noise
