Level Gauge offers max measuring range of 131 ft.

Press Release Summary:



Utilizing 4 different screen displays, OPTIWAVE 7300 C Radar Level Meter measures distance, level, and volume of liquids, pastes, and solids. High signal dynamics allow detection of small level changes and clear location of product's true surface. Objects such as struts, inlets, and ladders have little effect on signal reduction. Once unit is fitted to tank, wired, and turned on, it runs self-diagnostic test to ensure proper operation.

KROHNE Introduces OPTIWAVE Level Gauge


Advanced Design Creates Larger Bandwidth, Improving Resolution and Accuracy

KROHNE, Inc., a global technology leader in the development, manufacture and distribution of accurate, reliable and cost effective level and flow measurement products for the process industries, introduces its new OPTIWAVE 7300 C Radar Level Meter for accurate measurement of distance, level and volume of liquids, pastes and solids.

The advanced design of the OPTIWAVE 7300 C, which offers a maximum measuring range of 131 feet (40 meters), enables it to operate with a larger bandwidth, ensuring sharper resolution. This results in measurements that are more accurate as well as repeatable. The higher signal dynamics of the OPTIWAVE 7300 C allow the detection of the smallest level changes and clearer location of the product's true surface. In addition, objects such as struts, inlets, and ladders, and even agitated surface or foam, have little effect on signal reduction.

Installation and set-up of the OPTIWAVE 7300 C are virtually effortless, as the user need only fit the gauge to the tank, wire it and turn it on. The device will then run a self-diagnostic test to ensure proper operation. OPTIWAVE's Set-Up Wizard subsequently takes the user through a simple series of questions to define the tank and the product to be measured. If no action is taken for more than 10 seconds, a Help Screen appears to inform the user of the next step.

The device offers four different types of screen displays: alphanumeric, alphanumeric with tank illustration, alphanumeric with bar graph, and signal screen. The OPTIWAVE 7300 C also features a Device Type Manager (DTM) - a device driver that makes functionality available independent of the fieldbus protocol and also provides a graphical user interface to make process setup and analysis extremely easy. OPTIWAVE also supports all features of KROHNE's specialized PACTware software package.
