Impulse - Model TXXXX Series -Guided Wave Radar Meter
The Impulse Guided Wave Radar employs field proven TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) technology to provide accurate measurement of Total Level, Distance or Volumetric outputs on all liquids and slurries. TDR Technology has been widely used for its inherent ability to remain unaffected by variations in the process materials electrical characteristics. AMETEK Drexelbrook has harnessed the technology with easy to use configuration menus in plain language. You will have the level measurement you need, configured within minutes.
Easy to install, Easy to use
-
Easy navigation
-
2-wire, HART or Modbus digital communication for Class I, Div. 1, Zone 0 installations
-
Push-Button configuration or HART communications
-
No calibration or Level changes needed
-
System configuration asks only those basic questions that pertain to your selected level measurement type, and in plain language. You will be expertly measuring the process level within minutes
-
Dual Compartment housing separates customer wiring terminals from the Intrinsically Safe electronic circuits, display and keypad
Dependable performance
- Sensor designs that will tame even the most difficult level measurement application
-
Despite disturbances such as agitated, or irregular surfaces, foam or coating of the probe, the Impulse Guided Wave TDR will continue to provide reliable and accurate measurements.
-
Unaffected by changes in density and dielectric properties, dusts, vapor, and turbulence
-
Low dielectric measurements down to a dielectric constant of 1.4, suitable for LPG/LNG service.
-
Hazardous approvals Intrinsically Safe, Explosion Proof and Non-Incendive approvals
Application versatility
- Probe Type and Material selections for all applications Ideal for level measurement of Liquids and Slurries.
-
Ideal for replacement of costly mechanical displacer systems
