Microwave barrier
- Measuring principle

The microwave barrier comprises a FQR16 transceiver and a FDR16 transceiver, and works contact-free based on a microwaves with a frequency of 24.15 GHz.

Measuring principle

Measuring principle

  • The FQR16 transceiver emits the microwave signal via an integrated horn antenna. The high-frequency beam is dampened by an obstruction (bulk solids, cargo, objects, heavy deposits, liquids). If the beam is completely or partially interrupted, this is detected by the FDR16 transceiver, which triggers a switching signal.

    • Damping example:

    MaterialDamping
    AirNo
    Bulk solids with lower DF* Low
    Bulk solids with higher DF*High
    MetalFull


    *dissipation factor

Advantages

  • The measuring principle is independent of:

    • Temperature and pressure in containers
    • Aggressive and abrasive media
    • Dust, steam, mist, smoke and sediment deposits or build-up
    • Airflow, air layers of different temperature

  • Non-contact measurement procedure, therefore no wear and no maintenance required
  • It is possible to take a measurement through non-metallic container materials directly from the outside
