Products overview:

ZWRD705 seriesThe anti-corrosion guided wave radar level gaugeBy microwave pulse measurement method, and can be within the scope of industrial frequency band is normal, low beam energy, can be installed on a variety of metals, non-metallic, container or the pipe for liquid, paste, and granular material level for non-contact continuous measurement.Applicable to the dust, change of temperature, pressure, and presence of inert gas and steam.Radar level meter and environment are no harm to human body, but also has not influenced by the proportion of medium, not affected by dielectric constant change, do not need to live the advantages of school adjustment, both for industrial needs, or the consideration of economic material benefit to customers, is a good choice.

Second, the working principle:

ZWRD705 series anticorrosive guided wave radar level meter is the measuring instrument based on the principle of time travel, very low energy is emitted by a very short microwave pulse by transmitting and receiving antenna system.Radar wave are running at the speed of light.Running time can be transformed into material level signal by electronic parts.Probe a high-frequency pulse and probe the conduction along the cable type or rod type, when the pulse in the material surface reflected by the receiver inside the instrument, and the distance signal is transformed into material level signal.A special type of time extension method can guarantee the stability of a very short period of time and accurate measurement.Even if the condition is relatively complex, false echo, with a new micro processing technology and debug software can accurately analyze the level of the echo.

1, the input:

Reflection of the pulse signal along the cable type or bar type probe to the instrument electronic circuit part, microprocessor to signal processing, identify the microwave pulse produced by the echo in the material surface.Correct echo signal recognition by intelligent software to complete, distance material on the surface of the distance D is proportional to the pulse of time travel T: D = C * T / 2 where C is the speed of light because of the distance of the empty cans E known, the level of L: L = E - D;

2, the output:

By entering empty cans height E (= zero), full tank height F (= full scale) and some applications to set parameters, application parameters will be automatically adapt instrument to measure the environment.Corresponding to the four...20 ma output;

3, measuring range:

F - measurement range;E - empty cans distance;B - the top blind area;H - probe zui small distance to the tank wall at the top of the blind area refers to the material of high material surface and the small distance between measuring reference point.At the bottom of the blind area is located near the bottom of the cable can't accurate measurement of the distance.At the top of the blind area and at the bottom of the blind area is effective measuring distance between;

4, note: only the material between the top blind area and at the bottom of the blind area, to guarantee the reliable tank level measurement.

Six, installation guide:

The following installation instructions applicable to bar type probe and cable type, tubular type probe measurement has nothing to do with the installation.

1, the installation location:

A, distance of tank wall advice 1/6 - a quarter of the tank diameter (at least 300 mm, concrete tank at least 400 mm).

B, do not install in the middle of the metal cans;

C, don't put in the mouth;

D, when choosing the length of the probe, pay attention to the bottom of the probe from the tank bottom is about more than 30 mm;Pay attention to the medium temperature.

2, tank obstacles:

Pay attention to when installation probe at least 200 mm away from the obstacle.

3, remove interference:

, clutter echo suppression: a software which can realize the interference echo suppression, so as to achieve the ideal measurement effect;

B, the by-pass pipe and guided wave tube (only applicable to liquid) for viscosity don't play in the 500 CST, can adopt by-pass pipe, guided wave tube or pipe to avoid interference.

4, liquid standard installation:

For 500 CST or less and not easy to produce the adhesive medium viscosity, tubular probe is an ideal scheme, its characteristics are as follows:

A,, excellent reliability.

B, can be used in any medium, dielectric constant is greater than or equal to 1.4 measurement has nothing to do with the conductivity of medium;

C, tank obstacles and short tube size does not affect the measurement;

D, than bar type probe can withstand the lateral pressure is high;

E, for the high viscosity of the medium, it is recommended to use lever probe.

5, lie the tank and the installation of vertical tank:

A, tube type probe and bar type probe can be more than 6 meters to 6 meters for measuring distance of tank, can choose 8 mm cable type probe;

B, installed and fixed mode with solid powder storehouse measurement;

C, to the distance away from the tank wall unlimited, as long as avoiding probe contact tank wall;

D, if the tank obstacles more or too close to the ground rod, please choose tube type probe.

6, corrosive medium measurement:

If the corrosive medium, can choose lever probe measure set of a plastic casing.

Seven, measurement requirements:

1, measurement range from the beam hitting a can of low starting point, but under special circumstances, if the tank is low for concave type or conical, when the level below this point cannot be measured.

2, if the medium to low dielectric constant when it is in low level, low visibility, at this time in order to ensure the accuracy of measurement, the recommendations will be zero at low altitude to the position of the C.

3, theory, measurement to achieve the position of the antenna tip is possible, but considering the corrosion and the influence of the adhesive, the final value of measuring range should be at least 100 mm distance from the tip of the antenna.

4, the overflow protection, additional on the blind spot can define a safe distance.

5, zui small measuring range related to the antenna.

6, with different concentration, foam can absorb microwaves, and it can be reflected, but under certain conditions can be measured.

7, measurement is beyond the scope of action when the measuring range beyond, instrument of 22 ma current output.

Eight, can debug through three ways:

1, by displaying the adjustment module PM;

2, through debugging software SOFT;

3, handheld programmer by HART.

Nine, through SOFT software debugging:

No matter the signal output, 4...20 ma/HART, radar sensor can through the software debugging.Is instrument with the SOFT software debugging, need a meter CONNECTCAT drives.

Using software debugging, for the radar instrument 24 VDC power up, at the same time connect HART adapter front end with a resistance of 250 ohms.If the one-piece HART resistance (250 ohm internal resistance) of electricity meter, there is no need for additional external resistance, HART adapter can and 4...20 ma line in parallel.

Ten, use notice:

1, the meter used in outdoor, install the awning or protect box, lest time grew, LCD aging by sunlight.If used in the corrosive gas environment, need to install anti-corrosion coat, and outer casing and tighten the instrument into the outlet terminals.Where corrosive gas or liquid is used, or at the beach, sea use, need to choose anti-corrosion type.

2, wire, cable protection tube, pay attention to the seal to prevent water, to prevent rodent bite by rats, etc.

3, instrument, although itself with lightning protection device, instrument when used in dore region, Suggestions on the instrument into the outlet end of the other special installation of lightning protection devices.

4, instrument used in special hot and cold place, namely the ambient temperature may exceed the instrument work requirements, proposed around the liquid level meter high resistance, low temperature device.
