BJLM-R850 Radar Tank Gauge

Overview

BJLM-R850 Radar Tank Gauge

The BJLM-R850 Radar Tank Gauge is engineered for precise, continuous, non-contact level measurement of liquids and solids, based on the proven principle of Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar.

Installed atop the vessel, the instrument directs a frequency-modulated microwave signal toward the material surface. The reflected signal is received by the same antenna, and the system analyzes the frequency shift between the transmitted and echoed waveforms. This shift is directly proportional to the distance to the surface, allowing the BJLM-R850 to determine the level with high accuracy, unaffected by temperature, pressure, vapor, or foam.

Advantages of FMCW Radar Technology

High Resolution — Beat frequency is directly proportional to target distance, enabling precise position measurement; resolution improves further with wider sweep bandwidth.
Low Transmit Power — Continuous-wave signals at low average power reduce energy consumption and electromagnetic interference, improving overall safety and compatibility.
No Minimum Range Blind Zone — Simultaneous transmit/receive eliminates the minimum-range limitation typical of pulse radar, enabling reliable detection of very close targets.
Strong Anti-Interference Capability — High resistance to environmental noise and clutter, with reliable detection even in complex electromagnetic environments.
Robust in Various Environments — Stable operation under heavy rain, fog, dust, and temperature extremes with minimal performance degradation.
Ease of Miniaturization & Integration — Simpler architecture than pulse radar, suitable for a wide range of platforms and applications.
Non-Contact Measurement — Measurements unaffected by medium properties, enabling safe, accurate measurement of high-temperature, cryogenic and corrosive substances.
