It is suitablefor applications in storage tanks, process vessels, dosing vessels andreactors.The standard electronics enables the use of instruments in productswith an εr-Wert ≥1.8. The electronics version with increased sensitivityenables the use of the instrument also in applications with very poorreflective properties or products with an εr value ≥1.5. The values thatcan be actually reached depend on the measurement conditions, theantenna system or the standpipe or bypass tube.The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with aduration of approx. 1 ns. These pulses are reflected by the productand received by the antenna as echoes. The transit time of the radarpulses from emission to reception is proportional to the distance andScope of this operatinginstructions manualVersionsScope of deliveryScope of this operatinginstructions manualApplication areaFunctional principle
