SLDL5215 Rod Type Radar Level Meter

SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter SoltaScan 6.3GHz IP68 tank level measurement sensor

The SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter is a 6.3GHz low‑frequency radar level instrument designed for reliable measurement in harsh process conditions. It can penetrate foam and condensed deposits, maintaining stable readings despite steam, mixed gas, pressure, and temperature variations. This non‑contact radar level meter is widely used for continuous level measurement of liquids, slurries, and granular materials in metal, non‑metal tanks, and pipelines.

Working Principle of the SLDL5215 Rod Type Radar Level Meter

The SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter uses microwave pulse technology operating in industrial frequency bands. With low beam energy, it sends narrow microwave pulses downward through the integrated sealed antenna. After reflecting off the medium surface, the signal is received and converted into an accurate level value. The high speed of electromagnetic waves ensures almost instantaneous measurement response.

Key Features of the SLDL5215 Rod Type Radar Level Meter

Strong Penetration & Wide Adaptability

The SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter features strong beam penetration at 6.3GHz, making it suitable for highly corrosive environments and hygienic applications.

Anti‑Condensation & Anti‑Build‑Up

The large rod antenna of the SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter resists condensation and material build‑up, ensuring stable measurement.

Superior Performance in Complex Liquids

Compared with high‑frequency radar, the SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter performs better in measuring corrosive liquids, bubbly or foamy surfaces, and turbulent liquid levels.

Integrated Sealed Antenna

The integrated sealed antenna design enhances durability and stability for long‑term industrial use.

Installation Guide for the SLDL5215 Rod Type Radar Level Meter

Recommended Installation Position

Install the SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter at the center or symmetry axis of the vessel for optimal measurement.

Minimum Distance from Vessel Wall

Maintain a distance of at least 500 mm between the SLDL5215 rod type radar level meter and the vessel wall.

Fault Signal Suppression

If the distance requirement cannot be met, perform fault signal suppression during commissioning. Repeat suppression when build‑up occurs on the vessel wall to ensure accuracy.
