DAT-28b-TDR-6011-naval-tank-level-radar

Product catalog summary

Overview
The TDR 6011 Naval Tank Level and Interface Radar is designed for naval applications, specifically for measuring tank levels and interfaces in oil and water storage tanks. It is robust, reliable, and compliant with DEF STAN and ATEX standards.

Key Features

Customizable sensor design for complex tank geometries.
Performs tank volume calculations and density corrections.
Interfaces with display and control modules via 4-20 mA signal and RS485 Modbus communications.
Unique "Impedance Block" probe design eliminates deadband issues.

Military and Naval Applications
The TDR 6011 is essential for reliable tank gauging on military and naval ships, measuring fuel oil levels and water ballast for maintaining ship trim. It is certified for military duty, ensuring reliability under shock, vibration, and EMC conditions.

Insensitive to Liquid Type
The system tracks the interface between different mediums, such as air and oil or oil and water, without being affected by changes in liquid specific gravity.

High Reliability and Low Maintenance
No active components in the tank and no mechanical calibration needs reduce maintenance requirements.

Gauging of Irregular Shaped Tanks
The wave-guide can be shaped to follow tank curvature, allowing full depth gauging in irregular tanks.

Remote Electronics
The system uses a single coaxial cable to connect the in-tank assembly with the remote electronics module, allowing installation in sensitive areas. The module includes an ATEX-approved Safety Barrier for hazardous areas.
