1 Working principle of radar level meter
The general principle of FMCW radar level meter is that the radar emits electromagnetic waves at the top of the tank, and the electromagnetic waves are received by the radar after they meet the medium reflection, and the frequency difference δf between the received signal and the transmitted signal is proportional to the distance R of the medium surface: R=C (speed) *δf (frequency difference) /2/K (frequency modulation slope). Because the speed of light C and the frequency slope K are known, the frequency difference δf can be estimated to obtain the distance R from the surface of the radar installation location, and then subtract the space distance from the radar to the surface by the known total height of the tank (referred to as the height of the air) to obtain the height of the material level.

3 Product characteristics
1. The measurement accuracy of millimeter-wave radar can reach ± 1mm, and the measurement blind area is 50mm.
2. Smaller antenna size, to meet the more working conditions for measurement.
3.A variety of lens antennas, 3 emission Angle, more concentrated energy, stronger echo signal, under the same industrial and mining conditions, with higher reliability than other radar products.
4.With stronger penetration, it can also be used normally in the case of adhesion and condensation.
5.The dynamic signal range is larger and is more stable for measurements of low permittivity media.
6.Multiple measurement modes, and the radar reaction time is less than 1S in the rapid measurement mode.
