Đặc tính kỹ thuật và hiệu suất
-
80 GHz High-Precision Technology: The NMR81 utilizes a high-frequency signal that produces an exceptionally narrow 3° beam angle. This sharp focus allows the sensor to be installed very close to the tank wall or in nozzles with internal obstructions without receiving interference from false echoes.
-
Custody Transfer Accuracy: With a measurement uncertainty of only ±0.5 mm, the device is certified by international bodies like NMi and PTB for legal-for-trade applications. It ensures maximum reliability for volume and mass calculations in fiscal transactions.
-
Drip-Off Lens Antenna: The specialized lens antenna is designed with a “drip-off” geometry. This prevents the accumulation of condensate or product droplets on the antenna surface, which typically causes signal attenuation in lower-frequency or flat-antenna radars.
-
Safety and Redundancy: Developed according to IEC 61508, the hardware and software are suitable for use in safety-instrumented systems up to SIL3 (in homogeneous redundancy). This provides a dual layer of protection: high-precision measurement for business and high-level safety for plant protection.
-
Seamless System Integration: The NMR81 is designed for easy connection to major Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and Tank Inventory Systems. It supports open protocols, simplifying the migration from older tank gauging technologies to modern radar.
-
Extreme Range Capability: Capable of measuring distances up to 70 meters, the sensor is suitable for the largest storage tanks and high-capacity spheres used in the petrochemical industry.
