3.2 Principle of operation
The NCR-80 is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement of bulk solids even under the
most dicult process conditions and in very large measuring ranges.
It is ideal for use in high, slender silos with poorly reecting bulk solids such as y-ash, plastic
granules or wood chips as well as internal installations that cause strong false echoes. This is
made possible by its functional principle, a distance measurement through frequency shifting
with an especially small beam angle.
The instrument is available with dierent antenna systems and accessories for virtually all appli-
cations and processes:
●Plastic horn antenna or metal-jacketed lens antenna
●Optional or integrated rinsing air connection
●Swivelling holder with seal against the process
The instrument emits a continuous radar signal through its antenna. This signal is frequency
modulated in the form of a sawtooth wave. The emitted signal is reected by the medium and
received by the antenna as an echo.
The frequency of the received signal always deviates from the actual emitting frequency. The
frequency dierence is proportional to the distance and thus to the lling height. This dierence
is calculated via special algorithms in the sensor electronics. The determined lling height is
then converted into a corresponding output signal and outputted as the measured value.
