Application
The Soliwave FQR16 is an ultra-compact transceiver designed for non-contact level detection of bulk materials and liquids, as well as object counting and presence detection. The Soliwave FQR16 operates in conjunction with the FDR16. This microwave barrier operates on a non-contact detection principle and features a compact design suitable for confined spaces or hard-to-reach installation areas. For non-metallic containers, external measurements are possible.
The Soliwave FDR16 and FQR16 microwave barrier detects minimum and maximum levels of powdered and granular bulk materials, as well as liquids, providing protection against overfill and dry-run conditions. The device is also suitable for piece counting and object detection. It finds applications across various industries, including primary production, energy, and food processing.
