80G radar level measurement, apt for high-temp, high-pressure, and corrosive tanks
1.Introduction
KLD803 80G radar level gauge uses FMCW tech. The antenna emits a
high-frequency FM radar signal with linearly increasing frequency.
The transmitted signal, after reflection by the medium, is received
by the same antenna. The frequency difference between the
transmitted and received signals is proportional to the measured
distance. The collected frequency difference signal undergoes FFT
to get the echo spectrum and calculate the target distance.
2.Product Dimension
3. Working Principle
The radar antenna transmites narrow microwave pulse which will be
reflected back when reaching the surface of the medium tested and
then received again by the antenna system. The signals shall be
transmitted to the electric circuit and then converted into level
signals. As the transmission speed of microwave is so fast, the
time used for the microwave transmission to the surface of the
medium tested and then reflected back is almost 0.

7. Electrical Connection
Power Supply
(4~20) mA/HART(2 wire)
The power supply and the output current signal share a two-core
shielded cable. Please refer to the technical data for the specific
supply voltage range.
(4~20) mA(4 wire/6 wire)
The power supply needs to be powered separately, and a four-core
shielded cable is used for the power supply and current signal (the
current signal and the RS485 interface can be output at the same
time, and a six-core shielded cable is required for simultaneous
output).
RS485/Modbus
The power supply needs to be powered separately, and a four-core
shielded cable is used for power supply and digital signal. (The
current signal and the RS485 interface can be output at the same
time, and a six-core shielded cable is required for simultaneous
output).

9.Sensor linearity
Beam Angle
The beam angle is the beam angle at which the energy density of the
radar wave reaches half of its maximum value (3dB width).
Microwaves emit signals out of beam range and can be reflected by
interfering objects.
