The Krohne Optiwave 5200 Radar Level Transmitter is designed to measure the distance, level, mass, volume, flow rate and reflection of liquids, pastes and slurries. Radar level transmitters use an antenna to guide a signal to the surface of the measured product. Radar is a non-contact technology. Its PP or PTFE Wave Horn antenna options make it ideal for measuring corrosive and viscous products. The OPTIWAVE 5200 is SIL2-compliant according to IEC 61508-2 for Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS).
