Daily applications that have been considered for Ultrasonic can now use radar technology with its superior performance. The electronics are housed in a compact, single com- partment cast aluminum or Lexan ® housing. The R82 measures effectively even when atmospheres above the liquid are saturated with vapor. Pulse Burst technology and advanced signal processing manage common distur- bances such as false echoes caused by obstructions, multi-path reflections from tank sidewalls or turbulence caused by agitators, aggressive chemicals, or aerators. T E C H N O L O G Y Model R82 Pulse Burst Radar emits short bursts of 26 GHz energy. High-speed timing circuitry measures the time of the signal reflected off the liquid surface. Sophisticated signal processing filters out false reflections and other background noises. The exact level is then calculated, by factoring tank height and sensor offset information. The Model R82 circuitry is extremely energy efficient so no duty cycling is needed like with likewise radars. This allows tracking of high rates of level change up to 180"/min (4.5m/min). A P P L I C A T I O N S MEDIA: Liquids and slurries; hydrocarbons to water based media (dielectric 1.7–100) VESSELS:Most effective in storage vessels up to rated temperature and pressure. Pits and sumps, metallic and non-metallic tanks, others including plastic, glass-lined and concrete. CONDITIONS:Virtually all level measurement and con- trol applications including process conditions exhibiting varying specific gravity and dielectric, visible vapors, high fill/empty rates and some turbulence. MARKETS: All process markets including replacement of loop-powered, ultrasonic transmitters Model R82 Pulse Burst Radar Level Transmitter
