Kisters - Model HyQuant - L -Water Radar Level Sensor
HyQuant L, KISTERS’ state-of-the-art non-contact water level radar sensor, operates on a 60 GHz V-Band FMCW* radar technology. It offers superior resolution and accuracy, with reduced power consumption, all at an appealing price point.
Suitable for applications in open water bodies, it is available in two measuring ranges for level monitoring:
- HyQuant L20: 0,1 ... 20 m (0.32 ... 65.61 ft)
- HyQuant L50: 0,15 ... 50 m (0.49 ... 164.04 ft)
Its chosen measurement ranges, field-proven reliability, top-tier radar electronics, sturdy housing with a flexible adapter, and configuration software with adjustable filter settings, make HyQuant L an ideal water level sensing solution for diverse monitoring scenarios.
Benefit from reduced operating costs: excellent price/performance ratio, stable operation with no maintenance, and easy installation.
Reliable measurements and system integrity including flooded conditions:
- IP 68 rated, robust and weatherproof housing
High resolution and accuracy over the full measuring range:
- Regardless environmental, site and deployment conditions.
- Easy to use and configure filters for adaptation to local conditions to ensure measurement data quality.
Maximum flexibility in deployment:
- Lightweight and small design allows for a wide range of deployments.
- Included tilt (vertical axis) and swivel (horizontal axis) mounting bracket.
- Integrated gyroscope to help facilitate correct alignment to the water surface for optimum data quality.
- Easy installation on a variety of structures such as bridges, arms, outriggers & others.
- Low Power Consumption and unobtrusive design anti-vandalism for additional flexibility in remote and urban applications.
- Flexible configuration with stage point setting for real water level data
The 8° x 8° beam angle generates a clearly defined spot on the water surface, for proper measurement in wide and narrow water bodies.
