Radar sensor - the reliable solution for simple applications
Level measurement of liquids
The radar sensor VEGAPULS 61 is everywhere in use where the levels of
liquids in containers have to be measured continuously and contactlessly.
VEGAPULS 61 operates according to the PULS radar method. This measuring
principle is the ideal solution for measurement tasks in which
contactless and continuous monitoring of the level in a tank or silo is
especially important. But level detection is not the only strength of
this measuring instrument: the radar level transmitter is also used for
flow and level measurement in rivers, canals or open flumes when
fluctuating temperatures of the medium or the surroundings place much
higher demands on the instrument.
Area of application
The application possibilities can be found in almost all areas of
industry. Particularly sewage works, wastewater treatment plants of
chemical factories, power plants or other facilities of environmental
engineering as well as power generation and supply rely on the reasonably
priced option of monitoring levels continuously, reliably and accurately
with VEGAPULS 61 radar.
Advantages
VEGAPULS 61 offers reliable measurement of the levels of liquids:
- Non-contact measurement
- Simple installation
- Wear and maintenance-free
- Independent of pressure, temperature, gas and dust
- Adjustment without medium
