Radar (FMCW) Level Meter 1. Level measurement of liquids The level meter can measure the level of a wide range of liquid products on a large variety of installations within the stated pressure and temperature range. It does not require any calibration: it is only necessary to do a short configuration procedure. 2. Volume (mass) measurement A strapping table function is available in the configuration menu for volume or mass measurement. Up to 30 volume (mass) values can be related to level values. For example: Level 1= 2 m / Volume 1= e.g. 0.7 m³ Level 2= 10 m / Volume 2= e.g. 5 m³ Level 3= 20...
