Radar for solids level measurement 

Benefits:

The new LR64 from Schneider Electric offers customers the benefit of reliable, trouble-free solids level measurement. Following an easy start-up procedure, the radars use powerful Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar technology and advanced signal processing and algorithms to maintain accuracy. A rugged design allows both models to be used in applications featuring: product buildup, sloping material, uneven surfaces, “rat-holes” and other challenges.

• M12 cable connector option lowers labor costs with quick plug and play wiring
• Quick intuitive set-up with push buttons or PACTware™ DTM
• Compatible with WirelessHART Adapter WHA-ADP2
• No moving parts ensures reliability
• No need for expensive antenna aiming kits with Drop antenna
• Drop antenna unaffected by angle of repose
• Drop antenna shape prevents product build-up in dusty applications.
• A DN150 / 6” process connection results in a focused 4° beam angle.

Unique features:

EcoStruxure™ Process Instrumentation’s level radar transmitters offer increased performance with the highest operational efficiency and reliability in the industry.

• 2-wire, loop-powered, with HART 7
• Up to 580 psig (40 barg) process pressure
• Measuring distance up to 328 ft (100 m)
• Empty tank spectrum function
• 0.08” / ±2 mm accuracy
• Wide range of flange or thread connections
• Large, backlit LCD screen
• Dual Seal system for cQPSus-approved devices
• NAMUR NE 107 sensor diagnostics

Suggested applications:

Solid and granulate applications like buffer silos, hoppers, stockpiles, bulk storage containers, rock crushers, blast furnace, conveyor belts with different sized rock products (stone, gravel, grid, sand), aggregates (e.g. recycled concrete or slag), iron ore,
coal, coke, lime, fertilizers, granulates (PE, PP, PVC), additive fuels (e.g. dried sludge), salt, cereals, animal nutrition, coffee beans, dry yeast, woodchips.
