The Soliwave FQR56 microwave barrier transmitter is suitable for non-contact limit detection and can be installed in vessels, ducts, shafts or free-fall shafts, or outside non-metallic vessels for measuring, controlling and counting various types of bulk solids. It can be used together with the Soliwave FDR56 receiver.
Benefits
Flush, non-contact installation
Easy installation using an R 1-1/2 or 1-1/2 NPT thread
The electronics housing can be rotated through 360°, so the device can be optimally aligned after installation.
Robust mechanical design:
- no wear;
- optional ceramic sensor diaphragm for wetted parts;
- long service life;
- maintenance-free.
The signal strength can be displayed on the receiver.
Direct power connection (transmitter and receiver can be used separately or together)
Compliant with ATEX 1/2GD and IECEx standards
Application
The Soliwave microwave limit switch is suitable for non-contact limit detection and can be installed in vessels, ducts, shafts or free-fall shafts, or outside non-metallic vessels for measuring, controlling and counting various types of bulk solids as well as bagged or boxed packages. Typical bulk solids measured include: wood chips, wood dust and flour, gypsum, cement and lime, paper and cardboard, gravel and sand, and common dry powders.
