Description

Application

The Soliwave FQR56 microwave barrier transmitter enables non-contact point level detection using microwave technology. It can be mounted externally on containers, conduits, shafts, or free-fall chutes, even measuring through non-metallic materials. Designed as a point level switch, it is ideal for monitoring and counting various bulk solids and operates in tandem with the Soliwave FDR56 receiver.

Typical bulk solids include wood chips, wood dust, flour, plaster, cement, ash, shredded paper or cardboard, gravel, sand, dry powders, as well as packaged materials like bags and boxes.

  • Process Connections: Threaded
  • Ambient Temperature Range: -40 to +70°C (-40 to +158°F)
  • Measuring Range: Up to 100 meters (328 feet)
  • Certifications: International explosion protection certificates available

 

 


 

Benefits

  • Reliable Performance: The flush-mounted or non-contact installation ensures accurate measurements, with signal strength conveniently displayed on the receiver.
  • Durable Design: Mechanically robust construction minimizes wear, supported by an optional process-wetted ceramic sensor diaphragm. The product offers a long, maintenance-free service life, delivering cost savings over its entire lifecycle.
  • Adjustable Housing: The electronics housing can be rotated 360°, allowing flexible positioning during or after installation.
  • Flexible Power Supply: Direct power connection options for the transmitter and receiver, either separately or together.
  • Compatibility: The FQR56 is mechanically compatible with the FQR50/FDR50 microwave barrier models, allowing continued use of existing process connections and accessories such as adapter flanges, mounting brackets, and sight glasses.
