Principle

The general principle of the FM continuous wave radar level gauge is that the radar emits electromagnetic waves on the top of the tank, and the electromagnetic waves are received by the radar after being reflected by the medium. The frequency difference δf between the received signal and the transmitted signal is proportional to the distance R from the surface of the medium: R=C (speed)*δf (frequency difference)/2/K (frequency modulation slope). Because the speed of light C and the frequency modulation slope K are known, the frequency difference δf can be estimated to obtain the distance R from the radar installation position to the material surface, and then through the known total height of the tank, subtract the spatial distance from the radar to the material surface (referred to as Empty height) to get the height of the material level.

   
       

Characteristic

1. Millimeter-wave radar, with a measurement accuracy of up to ±1mm, and a minimum blind area of 0.1m.

2. The smaller antenna size satisfies the measurement of more working conditions.

3. A variety of lens antennas, smaller launch angle, more concentrated energy, stronger echo signal, under the same industrial and mining conditions, compared to other radar products have higher reliability.

4. With stronger penetrability, it can be used normally even if there is adhesion and condensation.

5. The dynamic signal range is larger, and the measurement of low dielectric constant medium is more stable.

6. A variety of measurement modes, the radar reaction time in the fast measurement mode is less than 1S.

Installation Requirements

• Installation method 1：Flange mounting
  

The meter should be installed at 1/4 or 1/6 of the diameter of the tank when using flange, and the minimum distance between the meter and the tank  wall should be more than 200mm.  

Note: ①Datum     

         ②Container center or axis of symmetry

      

• Installation method 2：Hoisting

(selected according to specific installation conditions）

                             

• Installation requirements:

When installing the instrument, avoid installing it above the material inlet, and try to avoid various objects that affect the signal, such as stirring paddles, etc.                        

                                   

         

Under extremely complex working conditions, the instrument  can work normally with the radar installation point as the center and no obstacles in the area with a radius of 20 cm.                                             

                

• Schematic diagram of installation and takeover

The maximum installation stub height H max depends on the installation stub diameter D and the product launch angle.

Long installation and takeover will affect radar performance.

Meter Linearity

• Beam angle

The beam angle is the beam angle when the radar wave energy density reaches half of its maximum value (3dB width). Microwaves emit signals outside the beam range and can be reflected by interference objects.

                     

The larger the antenna size, the smaller the beam Angle alpha, the less the interference echo will be generated.

For more accurate measurements, avoid installing any internal devices (such as limit switches, temperature sensors, bases, vacuum rings, heating coils, baffles, etc.) within the signal beam range.
