What is and what is used for
The instrument uses radar technology to measure the hydrometric level of the waterway, taking a measurement of the distance of the water surface from the sensor case and then subtracting the value found from the hydrometric zero value.Construction
The RLS is a two-wire level transmitter operating with radar pulses at 6 GHz for measurement ranges up to 20 m (66 ft). It lends itself to the continuous monitoring of liquids and sludge in non-pressurised storage tanks in normal environmental conditions. The RLS is suitable for applications with chemical vapours, temperature gradients, vacuum or pressure, for example in tank farms, in storing chemical substances, in digestion towers or in sludge tanks. RLSETG has a measurement range from 0.3 to 20 m (1 ... 65 ft).Main features
- Principle of measurement: radar technology is not influenced by temperature, pressure, steam or dust. This characteristic makes them better and superior in performance compared to their ultrasonic competitors.
- Easy maintenance: the benefits that our ultrasonic hydrometric sensor offers are not limited to precision, but also include simple and quick maintenance due to the engineering of the sensor that simplifies the phases. The only preventive activity consists of controlling the levelling of the sensor and in cleaning the target struck by the sensor. In fact, there must be no obstacles between the emitter of the sensor and the free surface of the water.
- Sturdy and reliable construction: lastly makes it an instrument with a long lifetime, which safeguards the customer’s investment. The instrument does not drift due to aging and requires no periodic calibrations. It is built in propylene with outstanding chemical resistance in addition to being hermetically sealed.
- Components that can be added or be built into the product: hand-held programming device with intrinsic safety, even without opening the cover of the instrument in the area.
