Radar sensor for bulk solids

This device offers high frequency optimum signal focusing - in narrow containers and silos with internal obstructions, it reduces interfering false signals.

The result is even higher measurement accuracy and reliability, even with very long measuring ranges.

Specifications include; a 75mm/3” antenna size, a measuring range of up to 120 meters/365ft and an accuracy of ±5 mm, it also so sensitive that even the smallest of level signals can be detected.

Poorly reflective products in very dusty applications with uneven surface profiles -  like fine ash, cement, flour, coal, plastic powders and wood chips - can be measured using this contactless technology, with no loss of signal and minimal false echoes.

There is sufficient performance capability for the most diverse tasks; from level gauging down mine shafts, to measurement in small hoppers or bulk containers, it also has fast enough reactions for level/position control on conveyor tripper cars. 

This innovative bulk solids level sensor offers maintenance-free operation, even in the most difficult of environments.
