Radar Level Gauge on Port Silo Height Detector: Latest Changes and Technological Breakthroughs
With the advancement of technology, radar level gauges have been widely used in many fields, especially in the detection of the height of port silos. Radar level gauges have become the preferred solution for liquid level measurement due to their advantages of non-contact measurement, high precision, high reliability, and all-weather operation. This article will delve into the latest changes and technological breakthroughs of radar level gauges in detecting the height of port silos.
1、 The working principle of radar level gauge
The radar level gauge utilizes the characteristics of electromagnetic wave propagation in the air, detects the surface of the medium by emitting high-frequency electromagnetic waves, and receives the reflected electromagnetic waves. Based on the round-trip time of the electromagnetic waves and the distance to the surface of the medium, the level height is calculated. Due to the fact that the radar level gauge does not come into direct contact with the medium during operation, it will not exert pressure on the medium and will not be affected by parameters such as viscosity, temperature, and pressure of the medium.

Traditional radar level meters require signals to be transmitted to the control room through cables, while new radar level meters use wireless transmission technology, which can transmit data in real-time to remote control centers, facilitating equipment installation and maintenance, while also reducing cable costs.
Multipoint measurement:
The new radar level gauge can achieve multi-point measurement, that is, one device can simultaneously measure the height of multiple silos. This greatly improves the utilization rate of equipment, reduces the number of devices and installation costs.
Anti interference capability:
The port environment is complex and there are multiple sources of interference. The new radar level gauge adopts stronger anti-interference technology and materials, which can effectively reduce the impact of external interference on the measurement results.
Intelligent management:
The new radar level gauge integrates intelligent management functions, which can achieve automatic calibration, fault diagnosis, data recording and analysis, and other functions. This greatly improves the reliability and management efficiency of the equipment.
3、 Technological breakthrough: the combination of millimeter wave radar and artificial intelligence
In recent years, the combination of millimeter wave radar technology and artificial intelligence technology has become a major breakthrough in the field of radar level gauges. Millimeter wave radar has advantages such as high frequency, broadband, and low diffraction, which can achieve high-precision and high-resolution measurements. The application of artificial intelligence technology enables radar level gauges to automatically recognize and adapt to various complex working conditions, improving the adaptability and robustness of the equipment.
