Radar sensors
NivoGuide® – NG 8100
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.
