Radar-Based Sensors for Detection and Measurement of Moving and Stationary Targets. Patent pending. the Instruction Manual. Use of this document assumes familiarity with pertinent industry standards and practices.
- Do not use this device for personnel protection
- Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
- This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-energized (off) output condition. Overview The K50R is an industrial radar sensor that uses high frequency radio waves from an internal antenna.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Industry Canada This device contains licence-exempt transmitters(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence- exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause interference. 2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Cet appareil contient des émetteurs/récepteurs exemptés de licence conformes à la norme Innovation, Sciences, et Développement économique Canada. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: 1. L’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage. 2. L’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement. Beam Patterns The beam pattern of the radar sensor is dependent on the radar cross section (RCS) of the target. The beam pattern graphs represent Standard Mode and are guides for representative object detection capabilities based on different sized radar cross sections and corresponding example real world targets. Use the following charts as a starting point in application setup. Note that applications vary.
- Use the Beam Width versus Distance chart to understand where corresponding objects can be detected. Adjusting the signal strength threshold also affects the beam pattern when the target is constant.
- Use the Beam Width versus Degrees chart to help determine how much the target can tilt from 90 degrees while still maintaining detection. Unless otherwise specified, the following beam patterns are shown with Signal Strength Threshold = 1. 2 At medium response time. R-GAGE® K50R Radar Sensor P/N 226218 Rev.
