Field of application

The Soliwave FQR56 microwave barrier uses a contact-free procedure for detection of point levels. It can be installed in containers, conduits, shafts or on free fall shafts. It is possible to take a measurement through non-metallic container materials from the outside. Suitable as point level switch for controlling and counting all types of bulk solids. It interacts with the Soliwave FDR56 receiver.

Benefits

• Highly reliable measurement due to flush-mounted installation and possible non-contact installation as well as indication of the signal strength on the receiver

• Mechanical robust solution ensures cost savings over the whole life cycle of the product: No wear and tear, process-wetted ceramic sensor diaphragm (optional), long serviceable life, maintenance free

• Electronics housing can be rotated by 360°, allowing adjustment into optimum position after installation

• Direct connection of the supply voltage (transmitter and receiver separately or together)

• Mechanically compatible to FQR50/FDR50 microwave barrier, existing process connections can continue to be used; likewise, accessories such as adapter flanges, installation brackets and sight glasses can continue to be used
