Are you looking for a more reliable liquid level measurement method? When interfering with echoes (in English) - such as agitators, baffles, mixers, pipes, and heating tubes -5600 can distinguish between actual liquid surface echoes and interference echoes.

Will your radar measurements be affected by interference echoes?

The Rosemount 5601 radar level transmitter has ultra-high sensitivity, providing superior reliability even under the harshest operating conditions. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The Rosemount 5600 series is a high-performance non-contact radar level transmitter. This transmitter has advanced signal processing and intelligent echo tracking capabilities, providing reliable liquid/level measurements in most process liquid/level applications, including liquids, slurries, and solids.

General application

The Rosemount 5600 is an excellent non-contact radar transmitter suitable for many different types of applications. For corrosive applications or in the application of viscous products, non-contact technology is the preferred best practice.

Reaction kettle

When the application and process conditions become harsh, high-power radar level gauges can be helpful in obtaining stable and reliable liquid level measurements. Even under extreme conditions such as heavy agitation or turbulence, or when measuring media with very low dielectric constants, the 5600 can provide reliable measurements with its superior 4-wire system performance.

High type container

Products are sometimes stored in very high tanks. Generally speaking, as long as the energy of the echo signal returned from the surface is large enough, a radar level gauge can be used for measurement. The higher the storage tank, the less energy can be returned to the antenna. The combination of medium height storage tanks and measurement media with low dielectric constants also returns very little energy. For these applications, the 5600 can perfectly fit. As a 4-wire high-power radar, it can measure media in storage tanks up to 164 ft (50 m) using standard options, and also provides options suitable for a range of 325 ft (99m).

Solid state measurement

Solid material level measurement has always been a source of frustration for many users. The available technologies for solid measurement are few and far between. Radar, ultrasound, nuclear capacitance, phase-shifting, weighing, and mechanical equipment are the most common technologies in these applications. Of course, all available technologies have different limitations, and radar is the most flexible solution among them.
