SITRANS LR560 Radar Level Transmitter
“These radar transmitters are working perfectly. In the future we will continue to replace our current level transmitters with the SITRANS LR560.”
Richard Banaszak, Head Electrician, Poraver, North America
Accurate level measurements using non-contact radar technology.
Reduced maintenance costs as instrumentation sensors no longer need cleaning by operators.
Improved instrumentation reliability using instrumentation built-in air purge connection.
Poraver North America, located in Innisfill, Canada, takes recycled pieces of glass that are too fine to be used in new glass products, and produces a lightweight aggregate, Poraver, which is used in the manufacture of in plasters and renders, adhesive and reinforcement mortar, fillings, lightweight concrete, plus in a variety of other applications.
The process is a challenging application for level measurement devices due to the abrasiveness of the raw material.
