  • Page 10: Principle Of Operation

    In this operating instructions manual, the optional instrument features are described. The respective scope of delivery results from the order specification. 3.2 Principle of operation The NCR-80 is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement of bulk solids even under the most difficult process conditions and in very large measuring ranges. It is ideal for use in high, slender silos with poorly reflecting bulk solids such as fly-ash, plastic granules or wood chips as well as internal installations that cause strong false echoes. This is made possible by its functional principle, a distance measurement through frequency shifting with an especially small beam angle.

It comes unassembled and not sealed against the radar sensor and can thus only be used unpressurized. It can be retrofitted on instruments with single chamber housing, retrofitting to a double chamber housing is not possible. NCR-80 Two-Wire 4-20 mA/HART...

    1 Nose for marking the direction of polarization Information: When the housing is rotated, the direction of polarization changes and hence the influence of the false echo on the measured value. Please keep this in mind when mounting or making changes later. Mount the sensor at least 200 mm (7.874 in) away from the vessel wall. NCR-80 Two-Wire 4-20 mA/HART...
  • Page 18 The instrument should not be mounted too close to the inflowing medium, as the radar signal could be disrupted. Silo with filling from top The optimal mounting position is opposite the filling aperture. To avoid heavy soiling, the distance to any filter or dust exhauster should be as large as possible. Fig. 11: Mounting of the radar sensor with inflowing medium Silo with lateral filling In bulk solids silos with lateral pneumatic filling the instrument should not be mounted above the filling stream, as the radar signal will be disrupted. The optimal mounting position is to the side of the filling aperture. To avoid heavy soiling, the distance to any filter or dust exhauster should be as large as possible.
