Description

UWT Radar Sensor NivoGuide® – NG 8100

Radar Sensor

Application area

The guided radar sensor NivoGuide® 8100 measures the level of liquids or oils of any kind. In addition to level measurement, this TDR sensor can also reliably and precisely detect an interface, which is likely to be formed between two liquids. Due to the robust sensor design and a wide range of versions, the sensors are suitable to be used in large storage tanks as well as in small process vessels or bypass tubes.

Your benefit

  • Simple, menu-driven commissioning and diagnostics with operating module and display
  • High measurement reliability even in applications with steam, foam formation or condensate to reduce unwanted downtimes
  • Maintenance-free sensor
  • SIL 2/3 certified
