FMCW 5000 Series Radar Level The PSM FMCW 5000 Radar Level Transmitter is high frequency (26 GHz) radar available with a range of antenna options for non-contacting tank level measurement with liquids, powders and granules. High Frequency High frequency operation allows the use of compact antennas that simply installation and produce a small beam angle that be focused to avoid internal tank structures and disturbances. This makes the transmitter suitable for narrow tanks with minimum fixed beam diameter. The Tank Bottom Following (TBF) mode en- ables products with low dielectric constants to...
