Invensys releases new Foxboro Eckardt levelwave radar series

Invensys, a leading supplier of state-of-the-art industrial software, systems and control equipment to the world’s major industries, has introduced its Foxboro Eckardt™ LevelWave Radar Series measurement solution for liquids, including corrosive, sticky or difficult media.
 
“The Foxboro Eckardt LevelWave Series enables us to offer our customers wider capabilities for level measurement with the same peace of mind, quality and accuracy they have come to expect from Invensys,” said Roger Ingemey, general manager of Invensys Foxboro Eckardt. “We have more than 50 years’ expertise in level measurement and a well-deserved reputation for excellence, based on our experience, innovation and extraordinary quality. Every Foxboro Eckardt device is rigorously tested before leaving the factory. With its unique, modular design, the LevelWave Radar Series measurement solution guarantees easy and fast field installation, and each device will consistently provide accurate and stable measurement performance across a wide range of installations and applications.”
 
The LevelWave Radar Series is state-of-the-art measurement technology combined with robust, durable and reliable instrumentation. Each device has a unique 360-degree rotation, which allows for side or top mounting as standard, making it much simpler to fit into an existing space. For greater ease, all LevelWave instruments feature a user-friendly external display, offering easy, intuitive configuration for a new operator. For further effortless operation for busy engineers, there is an option for full digital remote electronics up to a distance of 100 meters.
 
The new measurement solution is excellent for a wide range of applications, including blending; distillation tanks; process tanks and separators; solid silos and storage tanks for most liquids; pastes; foam; and corrosive media. This makes the new LevelWave Radar Series a great addition to the company’s existing level measurement portfolio and an ideal solution across many industries.
 
“In a world where time is money, when choosing which device to purchase, it is important to know how easy it will integrate into an existing system and how long it will take to install,” Ingemey said. “The LevelWave Series has a unique modular design—a simple click-in system—so installation really couldn’t be easier. This enables process operators and installers to move onto the next job more quickly; it makes ongoing maintenance much simpler; and its easy head removal reduces process downtime.”
