Issues with the selection of a level gauge for 96% alkali solutions

It is necessary to monitor the level of a solution with 96% alkali, as this is required for interlocking with a pump in order to control its start and stop. The temperature is around 470 degrees, and the alkali tank is quite short, at only 440 MM. Which type of level gauge would be suitable? # hcbbs
I’m not sure if a radar level gauge would be suitable? The character for ‘jar’ is too small; it’s really hard to choose.
Since it’s approaching the level of molten alkali, a radar level gauge should be used; one from Siemens will work. We’re using it.
For such a small tank, a radar level gauge is used. It’s the same as what we have upstairs on the 3rd floor, except it’s supplied as a complete set by Swiss Bot!
