Application

The Soliwave microwave barrier is designed for non-contact point level detection and flow monitoring of bulk materials (flow/no flow, trends). It can also detect and count objects, identify deposits, and monitor filling processes and material transfer points. Suitable for installation in tanks, pipelines, silos, loading stations, mines, filters, or free-fall sections. Measurements can be performed externally through non-metallic wall materials.

Advantages

• Easy installation with R 1½, 1½ NPT, or G 1½ threads (with lock nut)

• Robust mechanical design ensures lifecycle cost savings: no wear, optional ceramic sensor membrane, long service life, maintenance-free

• Mechanical compatibility with FQR50/FDR50 and FQR56/FDR56 microwave barriers, allowing use of existing connections; accessories such as adapter flanges, mounting brackets, and sight glasses can also be used

• Enhanced level monitoring safety with optional built-in flow monitoring

• Measurement principle largely independent of process conditions

• Effective in challenging environments where other measurement methods fail

• User-friendly operation via Nivotester FTR525 with graphical display saves time and reduces costs
