Radar

For the first time, customers/users of Terry Ferraris’ industry-leading non-contact level gauging systems have the choice of both ultrasonic and RADAR FMCW sensors for measuring and control applications:
• Level
• Volume
• Capacity
• Pump control
• Switch
The microWAVE RADAR dBR16 offers significant advantages over conventional pulse radar systems:
• Higher resolution
• Best signal-to-noise ratio
•Improved discrimination of return signal from target

Compatible with all Terry Ferraris gauges, the microWAVE RADAR dBR16 sensor benefits from the unique echo processing software ‘DATEM’.

Main advantages of RADAR dBR16:

  • Microwave beam penetrates non-metallic containers
  • Unaffected by fog, mist, misting liquids, rain or condensation
  • Unaffected by ambient temperature
  • Unaffected by inert gases and vapours
  • Unaffected by steam and pressure

The “Linear Frequency Modulation” (LFM) processing: Linear Frequency Modulation) gives microWAVE RADAR dBR16 a very strong signal-to-noise ratio and excellent resolution. The RADAR dBR16 is IP68 and certified for outdoor installation and offers leading performance in accuracy and repeatability with a very small dead zone. Its compact dimensions allow it to be installed in tight or cramped spaces.
