The Rosemount 3300 Series, available from Alpret Control Specialists, is a loop-powered radar transmitter for both level and interface gauging. The device was developed to provide reliable and cost effective measurement in a number of applications where other types of loop-powered transmitters cannot be used. Guided wave radar (GWR) technology combined with advanced signal processing and sensitivity ensures that the Rosemount 3300 Series delivers both level and interface measurement data from the same transmitter.
The two-wire connection ensures simple and inexpensive installation. Configuration is easy with a handheld HART communicator or PC set-up software with advanced tools, including tank diagram and dielectric constant determination.
Guided wave radar advantages
* No mechanical moving parts requiring maintenance.
* Unaffected by dielectric, density, temperature, pressure and pH.
* Probe versions available to handle disturbing objects, turbulence, foam and coating.
* Reliable measurement of solids (granulates, powders, pellets).
Advantage of being loop powered
* Easy to install.
* Low cabling costs.
* Existing cabling can be used.
* Easy replacement of non-radar gauges.
The advanced signal processing permits digital sampling - and the instrument is suitable for a wide variety of industries: chemical and petrochemical, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, food and beverage, oil and gas, water and sewage treatment, hydroelectric dams and power plants...
