Getting the best from your 80 GHz radar level sensors

Along with conventional differential pressure transmitters, avant-garde pressure sensors featuring oil-free, ceramic-capacitive measuring cells are now becoming ubiquitous in a variety of applications. The CERTEC® measuring cell, made of sapphire-ceramic®, is a highly robust and resilient pressure measuring cell, renowned especially for outstanding long-term stability, a high level of chemical resistance, superior overload, and pressure shock resistance, as well as abrasion resistance.

The are also significant benefits to using non-contact measuring radar sensors, especially if you wish to avoid adverse effects from internal installations or turbulence within the tank, standpipes, or stilling wells. VEGA’s new 80-GHz high-frequency sensors eliminate the need for these accessories, thus reducing costs significantly. The 80-GHz radar sensors’ signal focusing of free-radiating facilitates quick and easy mounting on a ball valve and operation without interferences from reflections that can adversely affect the measurement precision, thus providing operators with rest assured accuracy and reliability.
