Level l Guided Wave Radar Area of application The GWR sensors of the VEGAFLEX series are suitable for level measurement in liquids and bulk solids. In liquids, they can also detect the interface between two media. They measure liquid levels very reliably, even under high pressure and extreme temperatures. They can be used in simple as well as in aggressive media and are also suitable for applications with stringent hygiene requirements. The sensors are able to measure light and heavy bulk solids with absolute reliability, even in the presence of dust and noise. Measuring principle High-frequency microwave pulses are coupled onto a cable or rod and guided along the probe. The pulses are reﬂected by the surface of the medium. The instrument calculates the level from the running time of the radar pulses versus the programmed tank height. Advantages GWR sensors operate independently of noise, pressure or temperature ﬂuctuations and are also completely unaffected by changes in density, foaming, steam or dust. Buildup on the probe or on the container wall hardly affects the measurement. This allows simple, straightforward system design and engineering. The menu-driven adjustment routines enable simple, time-saving and conﬁdent setup.
