Product Overview
The Flanged Radar Level Sensor is a universal non-contact 80GHz FMCW radar level measuring instrument optimized for standard industrial tank installation. Different from thread-type radar sensors limited to low-pressure and simple working conditions, this model adopts a professional flange process connection structure, providing stable sealing performance, stronger pressure resistance and higher installation reliability.
Designed for general industrial storage tanks, conventional process vessels, and medium-duty liquid and solid measurement scenarios, it delivers continuous, high-precision level detection. Unaffected by steam, condensation, slight foam and medium density changes, the flanged radar sensor serves as a cost-effective and highly reliable level monitoring solution for daily industrial fluid and bulk material measurement.
Why Choose Flanged Radar Level Sensor
Thread-connected radar sensors are commonly used for simple, low-pressure auxiliary tanks, yet they face obvious limitations in sealing stability and structural durability. Under long-term operating vibration, temperature fluctuation and minor pressure changes, thread interfaces are prone to loosening, leakage and signal instability, requiring frequent inspection and maintenance.
Most standard industrial process tanks and storage vessels are reserved with standard flange nozzles. The Flanged Radar Level Sensor perfectly matches standard tank mounting interfaces, realizing flat, firm and fully sealed installation. Its integrated lens antenna structure avoids medium contact, eliminating wear, adhesion and corrosion risks. Compared with customized high-pressure radar or special dust-proof radar, this standard flanged version balances performance and cost, covering most conventional industrial level measurement demands with excellent versatility.
Core Product Features
Standard Flange Sealed Installation
Adopts universal industrial flange connection, compatible with standard tank mounting ports. The integral sealing structure ensures tight installation, effectively preventing process medium leakage and external dust/moisture infiltration, improving overall operational safety.
Universal Liquid & Solid Dual Measurement
Supports stable level measurement for various conventional liquids, granular materials and powder materials. It adapts to diversified working scenarios including industrial water, oil products, chemical solvents and small and medium-sized bulk material storage tanks.
Stable 80GHz FMCW Radar Technology
Ultra-high frequency FMCW radar features short wavelength and concentrated signal energy. It effectively filters interference from steam, condensation and minor tank wall reflections, maintaining stable and accurate level output under normal industrial working conditions.
Non-Contact Maintenance-Free Design
The whole measuring process is non-intrusive with no contact with process media. There is no probe wear, scaling or medium adhesion, realizing long-term maintenance-free operation and reducing daily operating costs.
Wide Environmental Adaptability
Works stably under normal temperature and pressure industrial environments, adapting to common indoor and outdoor factory conditions. Resists ambient temperature changes and slight on-site vibration interference.
Cost-Effective Industrial-Grade Performance
As a universal standard radar model, it retains core industrial measuring accuracy and stability while avoiding redundant high-end configurations. It is the most cost-efficient choice for conventional industrial level monitoring projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between flanged radar and threaded radar?
Flanged radar adopts flange sealing installation with higher structural stability and sealing tightness, suitable for formal process tanks and long-term continuous operation. Threaded radar is simpler in structure, only applicable for low-pressure, non-critical auxiliary tank measurement.
Q2: Can flanged radar measure both liquid and solid materials?
Yes. This universal flanged FMCW radar supports dual measurement of conventional liquids and bulk solids, with strong versatility for general industrial scenarios.
Q3: Does flanged installation improve measurement stability?
Absolutely. The firm flange fixing method effectively avoids instrument shaking caused by on-site vibration, ensuring long-term stable signal output and consistent measuring accuracy.
Q4: Is this model suitable for corrosive media?
It supports weak corrosive conventional media. For strong acid, strong alkali and highly corrosive liquids, please choose our professional anti-corrosion radar series.
