PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

RLI-G Guided Wave Radar Level Sensor is a no-moving parts continuous level sensor with advanced radar level sensing technology for reliable performance in challenging marine and industrial tank level applications. The RLI-G Series Guided Wave Radar comes standard with 4-20 mA and HART output as well as an LCD display module and multiple sensing probe and mounting options. These flexible guided wave radar sensors self-configure to medial dielectric constant and include and LCD display module and plug-in module to assist in programming and displaying measured values in numerical and bar graph form. Available with multiple sensing probe and mounting options, the RLI-G Guided Wave Radar level sensors can be incorporated into a vast range of applications.

  • Measuring range up to 24m (80 feet)
  • Accuracy: +/- 5mm (0.2 inch)
  • Measurement independent of temperature pressure & density variations
  • Product options to sense dielectrics as low as 1.4
  • 4-20 mA + HART Output
  • Segmented options for single rod and coaxial designs

How is this product different from what Gems offers today?

No moving parts Can handle liquid dielectric as low as 1.4 Self-configures to media dielectric constant HART protocol comes standard with the 4-20 mA Output

What is the maximum measuring range?

The RLI-G can measure tanks up to 80 feet (24m). Sensing depth is dependent upon options selected.

What is the difference between Guided Wave Radar and Pulse/Free-Air Radar?

Guided Wave Radar, or GWR, transmits its signal via a cable or solid rod down into the tank/vessel. The cable or rod contacts the media. On Pulse or Free-Air Radar units, the sensor does not contact the media and its signal is transmitted down through the air space above the media.

How do I set-up my RLI-G transmitter?

To set-up your Radar Level Transmitter properly, be sure to download the Quick Set-up Guide and follow the instructions step by step.

How close to the bottom and/or the side wall of my tank can I measure?

Each RLI-G probe type has unique dimensional requirements. Please consult the RLI-G catalog pages for the specifics on your desired probe type.
