Measuring Principle

The MRG-10 is a time-of-flight measuring system which employs short, low power microwave pulses in a tank measure level. The MRG-10 is installed at the top of the tank and emits microwave pulses toward the liquid or paste in the tank. Microwaves reflected from this surface are received by the antenna and processed by electronics. The time from transmission to reception is detected and converted by a microprocessor into the range from the transmitter to the surface (ullage) and the level output is calculated from the measured ullage (i.e. Level = Tank Height – Ullage).

Application

The MRG-10 employs a non-contact radar level gauging principle based on pulsed microwave signals and is suitable for level measurement in applications such as liquids, pastes and slurries.
