Waste Disposal Melting Furnace Level Measurement Sensor
MWS-10RF-2

MWS-10RF-2 Waste Disposal Melting Furnace Level Sensor is an FM-CW microwave Range Finder which consists of a controller and an antenna. The sensor is installed at the top of the furnace and is used for monitoring the operation of the furnace, in real time, by continuously measuring the burden level. The mWave software displays the level trend of the waste rising and falling over time and FFT spectrum.

Features

  • Unaffected by heavy dust
    Heavy dust accumulation on the antenna reduces the signal power, resulting in false or inaccurate measurements. To prevent this accumulation, WADECO has developed a unique, specially designed and highly effective N2 purging system to prevent the buildup of dust on the antenna surface, thus ensuring accurate and reliable measurement over extended periods of time.
  • High accuracy and reliability
    The unique mWave software enables the Range Finder to accurately detect the waste surface during blasting incineration. The controller can catch slight reflection signals from the surface, allowing for measurement of sponge like materials, in addition to normal waste.
    Providing the knife gate valve under the antenna does not affect the measurement.
    The stable measurement can be secured from the top to the bottom of the furnace.
    FFT spectrum allows for estimation of the shape of the waste inside the furnace.
  • The operational state is shown on your personal computer
    It displays an FFT spectrum, the received signal and various preset values. The received signal, FFT spectrum and the trend measurement are continually displayed.
    This displayed data can be recorded and reviewed in real or accelerated time.
    Use of the recording and reviewing capabilities allows the system parameters to be optimized offline.
    The controller outputs the internal temperature and any abnormal conditions (i.e. a lowering of received signal power, rising temperature in the controller and communication failures), which can be shown on the display (optional).
  • Convenient built-in functions
    A reference point and the required range are easily preset.
    Compatible for use with a personal computer.
    Wide range of power supply 90 ~ 240V, 50/60Hz.
    Communicates with a Personal Computer by RS-232C.
    4-20mA, analogue output.
  • Comprehensive stand alone system
    No additional hardware/software is needed as all signal processing is done in the controller.
  • Maintenance free
    Unlike mechanical level sensors, the Range Finder requires no additional maintenance, and measures the burden level continuously.
