Description

Flowma DCRD1000A1 Chemical Radar Level Meter

Flowma DCRD1000A1 adopted 26G high frequency radar sensor, the maximum measurement range can reach up to 70 meters. Antenna is optimized further processing, the new microprocessors have higher speed and efficiency can be done signal analysis, the instrumentation can be used for reactor, solid silo and very complex measurement environment.

Flowma DCRD1000A1 Chemical Radar Level Meter is a high-precision, non-contact high-frequency radar level transmitter specifically engineered for continuous level measurement of corrosive chemicals, strong acids, alkalis, and industrial liquids. Utilizing 26 GHz / 80 GHz high-frequency non-contact microwave technology, the Flowma DCRD1000A1 Chemical Radar Level Meter provides sub-millimeter level accuracy uninfluenced by tank pressure, temperature fluctuations, steam, or aggressive vapors. Featuring PTFE/PVDF encapsulated horn antenna options, IP67/IP68 weatherproofing, 4–20mA HART, and Modbus RTU telemetry, it delivers reliable level monitoring for chemical storage and process vessels.

Technical Overview & Operation

The Flowma DCRD1000A1 Chemical Radar Level Meter operates on the non-contact high-frequency microwave radar time-of-flight or Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) principle. The top-mounted antenna emits high-frequency radar pulses focused in a narrow beam toward the liquid surface.

When these electromagnetic signals hit the chemical interface, a portion of the microwave energy bounces back to the receiver antenna. The integrated microprocessor computes the transit time or frequency shift, deriving the exact distance to the liquid surface regardless of dielectric constant shifts, vapor layers, or atmospheric pressure variations. The chemical-grade antenna options (PTFE or PVDF seal caps) isolate the internal electronics entirely from corrosive tank atmospheres (HCl, H_2SO_4, NaOH). Technical manuals and flange mounting schematics are accessible on the Flowma product portal.
