NivoGuide® - NG 3100 Radar Sensors

Brand: UWT GmbH
Application Area

The guided radar sensor NivoGuide® NG 3100 is used for continuous level measurement in bulk solids applications from a Dk value of 1.5.

The large measuring range up to a vessel height of 75 m covers many applications in bulk solids.

Intuitive operation and a Quick Start Wizard makes commissioning simple and safe.
Features
  • Simple, menu-driven commissioning and diagnostics with operating module and display
  • Maintenance-free sensor
  • Use in narrow vessels possible due to guided radar signal
