Radar level transmitter Pulsar® R96

for liquids4-20 mA2-wire

The Pulsar® Model R96 is a loop-powered, 24 VDC, non-contact radar level transmitter. It has a longer measurement range, improved diagnostics and is easier to use than most loop-powered radar transmitters. Non-Contact Radar Non-Contact Radar level transmitters are offered with various operating frequencies, each having their own advantages. There are two types of Non-Contact Radar transmitters: Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) Pulse Burst Radar FMCW devices transmit a continuous signal with a constantly changing frequency down toward the liquid. The detected difference in frequencies between the transmitted signal and return echo is proportional to the distance. Pulse Burst Radar transmitters, the older of the two types, emit short bursts of energy to a liquid surface, and incorporate ultra-high-speed timing circuitry to measure the time of the return signal reflected off the liquid surface. Distance is then calculated utilizing the equation Performance not process dependent (changing specific gravity and dielectric have no effect) 6 GHz operating frequency offers superior performance in the tougher applications of turbulence, foam, and heavy vapors Range up to 130 feet (40 meters) Quick connect/disconnect probe coupling allows vessel to remain sealed SIL 2 capable with Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) = 92.7% (FMEDA available upon request) PACTware™ PC software interface with new improved DTM.
