Agricultural Water Conservancy, Acid-Base Tanks and Chemical Reactors: How to Select Radar Level Transmitters for Three Typical Working Conditions

Created on 08.31
From agricultural water conservancy to industrial production, from reservoirs and water channels to chemical storage tanks and reactors, measurement range, medium properties, liquid-surface conditions and installation requirements vary greatly across different sites.
Norhen offers 60G Radar Level Transmitters, Economy-grade 80G Radar Level Transmitters and Intelligent-grade 80G Radar Level Transmitters to meet diverse level measurement requirements for various applications.

01｜How does the 60G Radar Level Transmitter perform for outdoor scenarios such as agricultural water conservancy?

Scenarios including agricultural rivers, water channels, reservoirs and irrigation pools require long-term and continuous water-level monitoring. Non-contact radar level transmitters enable automatic monitoring, reduce manual inspection workload, and provide data support for irrigation scheduling, pump station on-off control and water resource management.
For projects involving rivers, water channels and reservoirs, the 60G Radar Level Transmitter can be selected according to site conditions. It also serves as an alternative to ultrasonic level transmitters.

Key Features:
  • Non-contact measurement
  • False echo learning to mitigate on-site interferences
  • L1-L6 multi-level filtering for fluctuating water surfaces
  • IP67 protection rating, suitable for outdoor and humid environments

02｜Is the economy-grade radar transmitter suitable for industrial scenarios such as environmental-protection and acid-base tanks?

Industrial sites feature diverse media and installation conditions. Applications like environmental sewage tanks, acid-base tanks, corrosive-liquid storage tanks, as well as small-diameter and long nozzle installations call for model selection based on actual working conditions.
Norhen Economy-grade 80G Radar Level Transmitter is designed for cost-sensitive projects requiring non-contact level measurement. It applies to acid-base tanks for hazardous-waste treatment, environmental sewage tanks and general corrosive-liquid applications.

Key Features:
  • Narrow beam angle, ideal for small-diameter and long-nozzle installations
  • Non-contact measurement to minimize impacts from medium corrosion and adhesion
  • Balances measurement performance and project cost
For general industrial level measurement, make selections based on medium property, measuring range, installation space and budget.

03｜Why recommend the Intelligent‑grade 80G for complex working conditions such as chemical reactors and stirred tanks?

In chemical stirred tanks and reactors, stirring causes liquid‑surface fluctuation; steam and foam may impair signal transmission; internal components including agitator shafts, coiled pipes and brackets generate interfering echoes. In addition, corrosion, crystallization and wall adhesion increase measurement difficulty. Many chemical sites are classified as explosive‑hazardous areas with mandatory requirements for instrument explosion‑proof performance.
Adopting 80 GHz radar technology, Norhen Intelligent-grade 80G Radar Level Transmitter supports targeted optimization via installation-position adjustment and parameter configuration to enhance real liquid-level identification capability.

Key Features:
  • Ultra-narrow 3° beam angle, measurement accuracy up to ±1 mm
  • Dead zone < 0.4 m
  • Explosion-proof rating Ex db ia IIC T6 Gb with official certification
  • Non-contact measurement, resistant to corrosion, adhesion and crystallization
  • False echo suppression and echo curve visualization available
