Radar level sensor for water management Looking Forward

Radar level sensor for water management - 2

Reliable function under all conditions The new radar sensor VEGAPULS WL 61 is ideal for all applications in level, gauge and flow rate measurement in water purification and sewage treatment facilities. Completely unfazed by environmental influences, radar measurement technology enables reliable, high-precision logging of water levels. The advantages of radar measurement Integration into existing systems VEGAPULS WL 61 uses short radar signals to measure Due to the many different mounting options, the distance to the surface of the water. Because the VEGAPULS WL 61 can be simply integrated...

Configuration and function of VEGAPULS WL 61 Extremely short microwave pulses are emitted by the antenna system in the direction of the water surface, reflected and received back again by the antenna system. The experience gained from more than 250,000 sold radar sensors has been incorporated into the signal processing system. In spite of the complexity of the signal analysis algorithms, adjustment and operation of the instrument are amazingly simple. Applicationoriented configurations can be selected in just a few short steps. Technical data Max. measuring range 15 m (49.21 ft)...
