Radar level gauges are easy and quick to install, feature excellent performance, high measurement accuracy, and stable operation, making them widely used in many industries. However, when using radar level gauges, some malfunctions are inevitable. Next, I will tell you about some common faults of radar level gauges and their solutions. I. Antenna scarring: If we notice scarring on the antenna of a radar level gauge while using it, it is likely due to an excessively high dielectric constant. We can clean it by blowing compressed air at it, or by washing it with plain water. In addition, we can also use an acidic cleaning solution to remove alkaline scale. However, it should be noted that during the cleaning process, radar level gauges must not be used. Secondly, we can use our Dinghua Electronics radar level gauge equipped with a purging device. II. Scaling on the probe: When scaling occurs on the probe of a radar level gauge, we need to raise the installation position of the probe. However, if we do raise the probe of the radar level gauge, be sure to adjust the material level measurement values and the interlock connection with the pump in that tank. III. The impact of dry foam on measurements Generally speaking, both dry foam and wet foam can reflect radar waves back, and in such cases it has no effect on the measurement results provided by radar level gauges. However, in the case of neutral bubbles, they absorb and scatter radar waves, thereby affecting the measurement results of radar level gauges. When there is relatively thick foam on the surface of the medium being measured by a radar level gauge, it can have a significant impact on the measurement results. This cannot be changed; everyone just needs to be more careful and avoid measuring such media. Xi’an Dinghua Electronics Co., Ltd., established in 1992 and currently located in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, is a high-tech enterprise that specializes in the research and development, production, sales, and engineering services of radar level gauges. Currently, the company offers a range of products, including radar level gauges, non-contact level measuring instruments, fork-level switches, electro-hydraulic actuators, ultrasonic flow meters, and non-contact temperature sensors.
