Working Principle
The radar level gauge is a measuring instrument based on the time-of-flight principle. Radar waves travel at the speed of light, and the travel time can be converted into a level signal through electronic components. High-frequency pulses propagate along the cable, and when they encounter the surface of the material, they are reflected back and received by the receiver inside the instrument, which converts the distance signal into a level signal.
Measurement Range
H—-Measurement range L—-Empty tank distance B—-Top blind area E—-Minimum distance from probe to tank wall
The top blind area refers to the minimum distance between the highest material level and the measurement reference point.
The bottom blind zone refers to a section of distance near the very bottom of the cable where precise measurement is not possible.
The effective measurement distance lies between the top blind zone and the bottom blind zone.
Note:
Only when the material is located between the top blind zone and the bottom blind zone can reliable measurement of the material level in the tank be ensured.
