OPTIFLEX 1100

Radar (FMCW) level transmitter for liquids with hygienic requirements The OPTIWAVE 3500 is a 2-wire 80 GHz radar (FMCW) level transmitter for liquids in hygienic applications. It is designed for continuous, non-contact level measurement in the food and beverage as well as pharmaceutical industry. The device features a flush-mounted PEEK Lens antenna with a small beam angle and dead zone for precise measurement even in small and narrow tanks with agitators. It is equally suited for use on larger tanks up to measuring distances of 50 m / 164 ft. As the radar withstands process temperatures up to +150°C \ +302°F and pressures up to 25 barg / 362 psig, it can be used in CIP/SIP cleaning procedures. The OPTIWAVE 3500 offers a large choice of hygienic process connections. It comes with extensive device diagnostics as well as HART®7 communication.

The OPTIBAR PC 5060 is a pressure transmitter for process pressure and hydrostatic level measurement in all kinds of process applications. It is designed for absolute and gauge pressure measurement in open tanks and – as dual version for electronic differential pressure measurement – also in closed vessels. The pressure device features a ceramic capacitive measuring cell that guarantees maximum overload and vacuum resistance for high plant availability. The measuring cell can be built into the process absolutely flush and the radially recessed position of the gasket provides additional protection in abrasive media. It is resistant to sudden temperature shocks and can handle operating temperatures of up to +150°C/ +302°F. The OPTIBAR PC 5060 comes with robust plastic and aluminium housing or hygienic stainless steel versions (incl. ingress protection IP69k). The pressure transmitter comes with various diagnostics and digital communication options.

For liquids in basic process applications The OPTIWAVE 5400 is a 2-wire 24 GHz radar (FMCW) level transmitter for liquids in basic process applications. It is particularly designed for continuous, non-contact level measurement in the chemical, petrochemical as well as oil and gas industry. It can be equipped with a PP Drop antenna for condensing atmospheres and corrosive media but features also Metallic Horn antennas. Due to its high dynamic range, the 24 GHz radar can measure distances up to 100 m / 328 ft.

The OPTIBAR DP 7060 is a differential pressure transmitter with integrated absolute pressure measurement. It offers a high degree of modularity for various flow, hydrostatic level or process pressure applications. For DP flow measurements it can be perfectly combined with the KROHNE primary elements (e.g. orifice plates or pitot tubes). Featuring a quick response time of just 125 ms, the DP transmitter offers high accuracy and measurement stability under all process conditions. KROHNE is the only manufacturer of process instrumentation to carry out a total 3D linearization of its differential pressure transmitter. For a robust and accurate differential pressure measurement, even under changing process conditions, each OPTIBAR DP 7060 differential pressure transmitter is linearized in all three dimensions during calibration: differential pressure, ambient temperature and static pressure are taken into account in combination.
