Scope of application of radar level gauge

From the shape of the tank, the radar level meter can measure the liquid level of the spherical tank, horizontal tank, cylindrical tank, cylindrical cone tank, etc. From the function of tank, the liquid level in storage tank, buffer tank, microwave tube and bypass tube can be measured. From the measured medium, liquid, particle, slurry, etc., can be measured.

1. Application of radar level gauge

Radar liquid level can be divided according to the antenna form; Cone antenna, paraboloid antenna, rod antenna. The cone antenna is suitable for applications where it is mounted on the roof of the tank or mounted on the waveguide for a large measuring range. Parabolic antennas are suitable for both liquid and solid measurement applications. Because of its diameter, it has a narrower radar beam and can be used for extremely long distance measurements. Parabolic antennas are also less sensitive to contamination. It can be used in applications with harsh antenna binders such as asphalt and liquid sulfur. The rod antenna is small in size and only the teflon material is exposed to the tank atmosphere. The rod antenna is suitable for measuring applications with hygienic requirements or corrosive chemical materials. For the high precision radar level meter of metrology level, the measuring principle adopts frequency-modulated continuous wave type. Parabolic antenna is used for storage tanks with large viscosity and easy to condense, such as fuel oil and asphalt, and cone antenna is used for other storage tanks. The floating roof tank is designed with a wave guide tube to achieve accurate measurement of the tank level. A local indicator is set on the ground to display the liquid level value. Convenient inspection by field operators.

2. Installation of radar level gauge

The radar level meter should be installed at a certain distance from the tank wall, avoiding the heating coil and the inlet and outlet of the tank, so that the measured radar wave can accurately reflect the true liquid level. The cone antenna has a protective cover to prevent media condensation from affecting the measurement. The waveguide tube on the floating roof tank requires the inner surface to be smooth and burrless with symmetrical holes. Ensure accurate radar echoes without interference. The parabolic radar of the fuel oil is set on the light transmission hole of the storage tank.
