Product description
3.1
Intended use
The type 2298 family of non-contact compact Radar Level Sensors uses the most advanced, next-generation measurement techno-
logy in industrial metrology, 80 GHz FMCW radar technology. The most fundamental advantages of 80 GHz radars over lower fre-
quency radars (5...12 GHz, and 25 GHz) are the smaller antenna, better focusability, and smaller beam cone angle.
The type 2298 uses the latest technology for measuring liquids, masses, emulsions, and other chemicals widely used in, for example,
the water industry, food industry, energy industry, pharmaceutical industry, and chemical industry, which provides measurement
results with millimeter accuracy.
The type 2298 is also ideal for measuring substances susceptible to vapor formation and liquids with gas blankets. As no medium is
required for millimeter wave propagation, it can also be used in a vacuum.
The device can also be operated with HART® compliant EView2 software.
