A TDR Probe is working as a Time Domain Reflectrometry application. Electromagnetic pulses emitted through a stem, move along with the light speed. When they come across the fluid surface, they are reflected. The electronic convert the time for reflection in distance, from which value the volume or level of stoked fluid is calculated. Micro pulses are moving only in the tank atmosphere; gaseous atmosphere or vacuum do not interfere on the measurement.
APPLICATION
The probe BAMOFLEX fits on a flange or thread connection, vertically from the top of the tank. The sealing is made of KLINGERSIL®. The single antenna is convenient for a tank where no wall effect or proximity of objects could interfere 30 cm around the stem. The coaxial antenna is universally convenient where stainless steel is chemically compatible. It is recommended for plastic tanks and/or open tanks. A basic configuration is done directly on site through DIP switch, push button and LED; all requirements for a perfect operating work are completed on the instrument. The BAMOFLEX is totally galvanic insulated between outputs / inputs / tank potential in order to avoid an electrochemical corrosion.
