OPTIWAVE 1520

🧪 What This Data Means — For Quick Client Selection

✔ Reliable for all liquid tanks (up to 20 m height)

Ideal for water plants, utility tanks, chemical reactors, ETP/STP pits, balance tanks.

✔ 24 GHz radar = good for general-purpose industry

Lower frequency than 80 GHz → more tolerant to build-up, condensation, and foam.

✔ High accuracy (±5 mm)

Sufficient for most industrial storage tanks and utility measurement.

✔ Maintenance-free non-contact measurement

No wear, no drift, unaffected by fluid properties, density, pressure, or temperature changes.

✔ Handles vapors & condensation well

Advanced signal processing ensures stable measurement in STP/WTP, chemical vents, and hot process tanks.

✔ Works with low DK liquids

Suitable for solvents, oils, and medium-DK liquids — more flexible than ultrasonic.

✔ HART integration

Easy connection to PLC/SCADA with diagnostics for tank-level monitoring.
