Stay in touch with your level - Non-contact radar level transmitter type 2290

GF Piping Systems Stay in touch with your level Non-contact radar level transmitter type 2290 Pressure Temperature Fumes Foaming1 Tank level measurement – simply with the right sensor. The wide range of tanks, process liquids and conditions requires appropriate technologies to provide consistent filling level information. The radar level transmitter type 2290 combines all advantages of a radar level transmitter in one non-contacting, compact and economical unit. Type 2290 is available in a variety of different materials to resist even the most corrosive environments. Applications Benefits • General – Challenging tank applications where other • Most advanced non-contact technology to detect filling level non-contacting principles fail e.g. ultrasonic • Robust against most interfering factors such fumes, light • Chemical Process Industry – Storage of solvents, chlorine or foaming, temperature or pressure fluctuations and build-up ammonia. Level detection in reaction vessels or buffer tanks • Easy setup and onsite configuration • Water Treatment – Pumping stations, sludge handling, drain • Adaptable thanks to smart setting options level monitoring, drink water conditioning vessels • Full plastic versions available to provide great chemical resistance Process media • For most liquids, including flammable2 and fuming fluids Features • Suitable for hydrocarbons, acids and aggressive media • Liquids which tend to foam e.g. in acid neutralization • Non-contact TDR radar applications • 19° beam angle, 25 GHz K-band • Tank mapping function to ignore internal obstructions Tanks • Short dead band of 0.2m (7.8 inch) • Bulk storage tanks • Large graphical LCD display • Day tanks • Minimum dielectric constant of process media εr 1.9 • Process vessels for mixing and batching • Distance, volume or mass measurements • Plastic or metal • Predefined tank shapes • 99 point customizable linearization Approvals 1 Application-dependent 2 See EX approvals at specification on next page.

Technical features Principle Time domain reflectometry (TDR) – electronics produce billions of microwave impulses per second emitting from the Radar Level antenna with a 19° focus. This energy is reflected by the Transmitter Type 2290 process media. The time distance between emission and reception gives a domain value. The principle allows accura- cies within +/- 3mm (+/- 0.1 inch). The technology is not affected by changes of temperature, pressure or gas layers.
