Radar level sensor ifm electronic LW2720
The electronic level sensor LW2720 from ifm electronic with a protection rating of IP68/IP69K and stainless steel enclosure works with 80 GHz radar and performs contactless measurements with a range of up to 10 metres. The device has been especially developed for hygienic applications within the food and beverages industry. The device has a programmable switch output and an analogue output (4-20 mA). Furthermore, there is an IO-Link interface available, enabling the convenient programming of the device. The level sensor LW2721 can withstand high process temperatures of up to 150 °C and is suitable for CIP/SIP cleaning processes.
For media with a dielectric constant 2...20 (e.g. oils) a coaxial pipe is required for operation (see accessories).Photo: LR7000
