The LW2120 radar level sensor measures levels of liquids and viscous media in tanks with a height of up to 10 metres precisely and without blind areas. The 80 GHz frequency that is used ensures stable and precise measurement results even in the presence of steam or condensate in the tank.
With the antenna extension, available as an accessory, the sensor may also be used outside closed metal tanks, for example on open tubs. The radar measuring system can penetrate through non-metallic walls, i.e. the level sensor can even detect levels in plastic tanks from outside.
For more than 30 years, EnviroFALK GmbH has been designing, manufacturing and selling pure and ultra-pure water systems for a wide range of industries worldwide.For non-contact level monitoring in tanks, EnviroFALK uses the LW2120 radar level sensor.
The sensor can detect levels up to a height of 10 metres without blind zones and at a millimetre resolution. The 80 GHz frequency that is used ensures stable and precise measurement results even in confined spaces. With the antenna extension, available as an accessory, the sensor can also be used outside closed metal tanks, for example on open tubs or plastic tanks.
Standard M12 connection technology ensures error-free installation within minutes, while IO-Link adds the convenience of remote parameter setting and reading. The intelligent algorithm in the unit makes parameter setting via IO-Link seem like child’s play: After setting the reference height once, the sensor immediately provides the exact level via IO-Link.
