26GHz Radar Level Gauge Product Overview
The 80X series sensors are 26G high-frequency radar level gauges with a measuring range of up to 80 meters. The antenna has been further optimized, and the new, rapid microprocessor enables faster signal analysis and processing, allowing the gauge to be used in complex measurement conditions such as reactors and solid material silos.
Principle of the 26G Radar Level Gauge
The radar level antenna emits a narrow microwave pulse, which is transmitted downwards through the antenna. Upon contacting the surface of the medium being measured, the microwave is reflected back and then captured again by the antenna system. The signal is then transmitted to the electronic circuitry, which automatically converts it into a level signal (since the speed of microwave propagation is extremely fast, the time it takes for the electromagnetic wave to reach the target, reflect, and return to the receiver is almost instantaneous).

The reference surface for measurement is: the threaded bottom surface or the sealing surface of the flange.
Note: When using radar level timing, ensure that the material level does not enter the measurement blind area (as shown in area D in the diagram).
26G Radar Level Gauge Features:
Small antenna size for easy installation; non-contact radar, no wear.
Little affected by corrosion and foaming; almost unaffected by changes in humidity, temperature, and pressure in the atmosphere.
The severe dust environment has little impact on the operation of the high-frequency level gauge.
Shorter wavelength, better reflection on inclined solid surfaces.
Beamwidth is narrow, energy is concentrated, enhancing echo capability while also being beneficial for avoiding interference objects.
Smaller measurement blind spot, yielding good results even for small containers.
High signal-to-noise ratio, delivering superior performance even under fluctuating conditions.
High frequency is the preferred choice for measuring solids and low dielectric constant materials.
