57-642 ECLIPSE Model 705 Guided Wave Radar Transmitter for Hygienic Industries
4.4.4.5 Strapping Table Configuration
The referenced configuration parameters can affect where a
waveform crosses thresholds. Therefore, all strapping table
information should be obtained after the configuration has
been optimized.
4.4.4.6 Additional Considerations
Many Life Sciences industry applications are dynamic
processes. These may require additional tuning to accom-
modate the differences. Specifically, applications where
clean-in-place (CIP) is present may require further tuning as
the recycle rates are finalized.
Caustics have a high dielectric that will respond differently
than process water (i.e. reducing sensitivity addresses a
majority of these fine-tuning cases). The Echo Curve func-
tion in the ECLIPSE PACTware DTM is very effective in
identifying what adjustments need to be made and whether
they have been resolved.
Foaming applications are quite common in Life Sciences
liquid level measurement applications and many, if not all,
liquid levels can be measured using the MAGNETROL
ECLIPSE GWR. However, there is a limit that is dependent
upon the dielectric value of the foam. If the value is high
enough, the radar signal will not pass through the foam.
Based on experience, the ECLIPSE is operational in most
Life Sciences operation by utilizing the sensitivity and
threshold adjustment built into the unit to address these sit-
uations.
