Microwave barrier transmitter Soliwave FQR57
- SKU:
- Soliwave FQR57 Series
- Weight:
- 0.00 Grams
Description
Application
The Soliwave FQR57 microwave barrier transmitter utilizes a non-contact method for point level detection and bulk flow monitoring (flow/no flow, trend). It is ideal for detecting and counting objects, identifying deposits, and overseeing filling operations or material transfer points. The device can be installed in various settings such as containers, conduits, hoppers, filling stations, shafts, and filters. It also supports external measurement through non-metallic container materials.
Key features include:
- Non-contact limit detection (min/max) and flow monitoring for bulk solids
- Object detection, counting, and positioning
- Identification and analysis of deposits and contamination in filters
- Monitoring of filling processes and material transfer points
- Compatibility with high-temperature applications up to 450°C (842°F)
- Suitable for high-pressure applications up to 20 bar (290 psi)
- Certified for international explosion protection
Benefits
- Easy installation with options for R 1½, 1½ NPT thread, or G 1½ (with lock nut)
- Durable design, offering long-term cost savings with no wear or maintenance, and an optional ceramic sensor diaphragm for enhanced process durability
- Enhanced safety in point level monitoring with integrated bulk flow monitoring
- Reliable performance regardless of process conditions
- Effective in challenging applications where other measurement methods may fail
- Convenient operation via the Nivotester FTR525 with a graphical display, reducing both setup time and operational costs
