Micropilot M Radar Level
The Micropilot is a "downward-looking" measuring system, operating based on
the time-of-flight method. It measures the distance from the reference point
(process connection) to the product surface. Radar impulses are emitted by an
antenna, reflected off the product surface and received again by the radar system.
The Micropilot M is used for continuous, non-contact level measurement of
liquids, pastes, slurries, and solids. The measurement is not affected by changing
media, temperature changes, gas blankets or vapors.
Your b e nefits :
• 2-wire technology, low price:
A real alternative to differential pressure, floats and displacers. 2-wire
technology reduces wiring costs and allows easy implementation into
existing systems.
• High temperatures:
Suitable for process temperatures up to 200°C (392 °F), up to 400°C
(752°F) with high temperature antenna.
