Product Description

Function and Measurement System: Discover the pinnacle of precision with our advanced measurement system that ensures accuracy and reliability in every application.
Measuring Principle: Uncover the science behind superior measurement with our guided wave radar technology that revolutionizes accuracy.
The MGS Series of guided wave radar level meters are engineered as 'top-down' measuring instruments, utilizing the sophisticated Time of Flight (ToF) principle. By emitting high-frequency pulses, these signals traverse the probe and reflect upon encountering the material surface. The returning signal, captured by the instrument, undergoes unique equivalent sampling technology. This process ingeniously translates the time difference between pulse emission and reception into a precise distance measurement from the instrument's reference point (the connection point of the instrument's process) to the material surface. This cutting-edge methodology, known as TDR Time Domain Reflectometry, ensures unparalleled measurement accuracy.

Import: Seamlessly integrate your systems with our high-performance radar level gauge for optimal functionality.
The echo pulse signal journeys from the probe to the instrument's electronic unit, where the microprocessor meticulously analyzes it to discern the true level echo signal. Intelligent software ensures the correct identification of the echo signal. The measurement distance D is directly proportional to the pulse travel time t: D = c * t / 2, where c represents the speed of light. With the known empty tank height E, the level L can be accurately calculated: L = E - D. Refer to the schematic for the empty tank height E on the right.


Output: Optimize your measurement output with a versatile 4~20mA setting, adaptable to your exact needs via the HART protocol.
Adaptation to Field Conditions: Tailored to your unique field conditions, easily configure the height of the empty tank (zero point), full tank height (full scale), and application parameters. This enables the instrument to automatically adjust to the current measurement application. With the user's range settings, the corresponding output of 4~20mA is established, facilitating seamless communication through the HART protocol.

explain	· Usually, cable probes are used to measure solid particles, and rod probes are only suitable for measuring light solid particles with good fluidity in small ranges (about 4m); · Rod or coaxial rod probes are usually used to measure small range of liquids. Cable probes are used to measure liquids with a range greater than 4m or in situations where rigid probes cannot be installed on the top space; · The coaxial rod probe can measure the viscosity of liquids up to 500cst, the coaxial rod probe can measure liquefied gas, the nozzle and the internal structure of the material tank have no effect on the measurement; · When used for measuring the material level of large bins, the cable probe should be equipped with a plastic sheath to maintain the seal and prevent the cable from breaking due to side pressure; · Corrosive media should be selected for corrosion protection; · When the measured medium is a very loose material, it can be classified as a class with low dielectric constant; · The maximum range of the instrument will be reduced due to the influence of working conditions, such as: very loose surface material, adhesion caused by wet medium.

Blind zone and measurement distance: Engineered for precision, eliminating blind zones and maximizing measurement range.

	min	max
Cable probe	1	20	0.2	0.25
Pole probe	0.5	4	0.2	0.05
Coaxial rod probe	0.5	3	0	0.05
explain: 1. The top blind area refers to the minimum distance between the highest material surface and the measurement reference point; 2. The bottom blind area refers to the distance near the bottom of the probe that cannot be measured accurately; 3.

Measuring Condition
• Measurement Range: Initiates at the beam's contact with the tank bottom. Note: In disc-bottom or conical tanks, levels below this point are unmeasurable, ensuring precision where it counts.
• For Low Dielectric Media (Class A & B): When media is at low levels (entering right figure C), the tank's bottom becomes visible, compromising measurement accuracy. To enhance accuracy, set the zero point at position C, as depicted, away from the tank's bottom.
• Theoretical Measurement Range: Extends to the instrument antenna's end. Account for corrosion and adhesion by maintaining a distance from the antenna top, especially in condensation-prone scenarios, to ensure accurate readings.
Minimum Measurement Range B: Depends on the selected antenna type. Refer to the detailed table below for precise guidance.
Tank Specifications: Diameter must exceed D, and height should be no less than H, as outlined in the informative table below.

· Influence of Gas Phase
When steam graces the liquid surface, high pressure decelerates signal transmission. This effect varies with steam type and is pronounced in low temperatures. As distance from the measurement zero point (flange) to material surface grows, so does the measurement error. Refer to the subsequent table for detailed error data.
