The maximum allowed temperature for the new Krohne level radar devices Optiwave and Optiflex has now been increased from 150°C to 200°C (measured at the flange). The higher temperature can be reached without a pressure derating.
Krohne offers the devices with a higher maximum temperature without raising the price. Extensive tests preceded the realisation of the customers' wishes; consequently the new generation of level radar devices from Krohne can be used in more applications than before.
Thanks to its 26 GHz - FMCW radar technology, very high dynamic performance and bandwidth - the instrument achieves high resolution, accuracy and maximum application reliability. The start-up procedure for Optiwave and Optiflex is simple using the quick set-up. The standard signal converter with large graphic display is operated by piezoelectric pushbuttons from outside the housing. Both devices have HART and are supplied together with PACTware and a non-cost DTM with full functionality including data recording and reproduction. OptiwavE and Optiflex both have a high standard accuracy of ±3 mm. The Krohne Optiflex can measure interfaces as thin as 50 mm. The integrated zero echo recording for the first metre has proved to be particularly helpful in practice.

Temperature Measurement
For successful paint cure, irrespective of the paint chemistry being used, there is a critical need to measure and control the temperature of the car body as it travels through the oven. Today, paint ovens are controlled in a sophisticated fashion via thermocouples located in each zone to give constant feedback on the ambient temperature.
