The SmartWave is a very accurate, noiseless and self-adjusting pulse radar transmitter for distances up to 100 feet. The SmartWave adjusts microwave pulse amplitude and its width to a target distance and target reflection properties. The receiver changes its sensitivity with the amplitude of received echoes. In addition, the unit analyzes the shapes of the received echoes and eliminates the ones coming from tank walls, standpipes and other obstructions. These features allow the SmartWave to track any wanted target from the tip of the rod antenna to the bottom of the tank, regardless of the tank shape or environmental conditions.

Any build up on the rod antenna does not deteriorate the performance of the radar probe. Our radar does not have any mismatch between resonator and transceiver. This eliminates problems when a target is close to the antenna and gives optimal performance of the radar.

The SmartWave Transmitter also features a low dielectric mode. In this mode SmartWave will ignore echoes from tank bottoms with material present and it will increase its transmit energy and sensitivity of the receiver until it will detect echoes from surfaces of the low dielectric materials. SmartWave in this mode will work with dielectrics around 2 and higher.

SmartSonic Ultrasonic Transmitter
Remote Level Indication for up to Five Bins

This display module can be used with either SmartSonic or SmartWave transmitters for remote indication of bin levels. The display unit houses up to five display modules in a NEMA-4X enclosure enabling the convenient reading of up to five bins at a single location. Display module options include either a versatile modular bar graph display with optional dual set points and relay outputs or a 51-segment bar graph with a four-digit LED display with standard relay and analog outputs.

The display unit can be configured to meet a variety of operational needs, providing for both process control and localized alarms to low or high levels. It features an auto-sensing AC/DC power supply and can be used in conjunction with a variety of voltages – either 85 to 265 VAC / 95 to 270 VDC or 15 to 48 VAC / 10 to 72 VDC. Other options include analog current loop and relay outputs for transmitting measurement data to PLC/DCS or other analog devices and optional dual set points that are easily adjusted from the front of the display module.
