Non-contact Radar Level Meter: Widely Used, Becoming The Choice Of Many Industries

May 23, 2024|

Radar level gauge is an instrument used for continuous measurement of material level. As a common level measurement equipment, radar level gauges can be divided into two categories: contact radar level gauges and non-contact radar level gauges based on their working methods. Among non-contact radar level meters, according to different microwave waveforms, they can be divided into pulse radar level meters and frequency modulated continuous wave radar level meters.

Non-contact continuous wave radar level meter

Radar level meters have many advantages, such as being unaffected by changes in medium specific gravity and dielectric constant, and eliminating the need for on-site calibration. It has high measurement accuracy, stable performance, strong reliability, easy maintenance and wide application range. Therefore, non-contact radar materials are widely used in many industries (such as electric power, steel, metallurgy, cement, petrochemicals, papermaking, food, etc.) and in situations where there are factors such as dust, large temperature and pressure changes, and inert gases and steam. The level meter can be used to measure the level of liquids, slurries and granular materials in various metal and non-metallic containers or pipes.

In the industrial production process, radar level meters can monitor the use of materials in designated storage tanks in real time, providing convenience to on-site workers. non-contact radar level meters have become one of the fastest-growing level measurement instruments in recent years due to their easy installation, low maintenance costs, flexible use, and immunity to interference from environmental factors in the warehouse.

Although some users may choose ultrasonic level gauges due to cost considerations, radar level gauges have higher measurement accuracy. In addition, ultrasonic liquid level meters are mainly used for liquid level measurement. When there is accumulation or bridging above the liquid level, the ultrasonic liquid level meter cannot accurately determine the height of the material. This also explains why few people choose to use ultrasonic liquid level meters. for material measurement.

Therefore, whether it is to meet industrial needs or to save costs, non-contact radar level meters are an excellent choice and one of the important reasons for their wide application.
