Overfill-safe Eclipse® GWR probe from Magnetrol
16 April 2009
The newly launched Model 705 is the first overfill-safe probe for dirty liquids and completes the first heavy-duty offering for Guided Wave Radar.
The Eclipse Caged probe is designed for heavy-duty use on hydrocarbons with extreme viscosity up to 10.000 cP. The caged probe appears like a single rod GWR probe but performs identical to a coaxial-style GWR probe. Once installed in the appropriate cage, the 7MG is a coaxial GWR probe with full mounting flexibility and mechanical overfill safety.
The 7MG is different from any other GWR probe on the market today. It re-uses existing bypass cages, stillwells or bridles as the outer tube of a normal coaxial design. The 7MG is adapted in design to meet the 2”, 3” or 4” Ø size of the cage it will be operating in. A special adaption piece assures the perfect impedance alignment with the characteristic impedance of the newly formed coax style GWR probe.
The heavy-duty industries want fewer probe choices. These choices must provide safe solutions and reduce downtime during maintenance. The new “Heavy-Duty Guided Wave Radar 7MG Probe” meets this criteria. The new offering includes heavy-duty GWR probes that in line with the amplifier serve level, volume and interface with one single configuration, are designed to be used in clean and dirty liquids and are mechanically overfill safe. Mechanical overfill safety allows measurement up to the process flange and guarantees no loss of signal by mechanical design instead of relying on software algorithms that some suppliers are forced to use.
Ten years ago, Magnetrols' Eclipse 705 was the first 2-wire loop-powered Guided Wave Radar transmitter (or device) on the market. Since then, Magnetrol has re-stated its leadership by once again being first in the industry to add new capabilities to Guided Wave Radar — a heavy-duty offering and the new caged 7MG probe.
The Eclipse 705 handles temperatures from -196° up to +430° C, pressures from full vacuum up to 430 bar, liquefied gases with very low dielectrics up to water-based liquids and saturated steam applications for high-pressure steam drums up to 155 bar.
