Until now, users had to consider numerous aspects when choosing a level sensor: Frequency, media properties, environmental conditions, temperature range, process connection – to name just a selection. There was always a risk of choosing the wrong sensor. A new radar sensor now aims to remedy the situation by making it suitable for all applications.
Perfect timing: As Ethernet APL technology is being launched, users in the chemical industry are also eager to tackle the subject of safety. They’ve looked to the automotive industry, which has relied on the black-channel principle with Profisafe for many years.
Industry 4.0, connectivity and networking are also hot topics in machine safety. From the user’s perspective, there are a number of concepts – each slightly different, but all sharing one thing in common – their use can boost productivity, transparency and flexibility in production.
The challenge for any application is a safety concept that you scarcely notice. Particularly when there is poor visibility. So, at EuroChem in Antwerp, the gigantic conveyor with multiple discharge points, which is the central hub for storing and loading synthetic fertiliser, is now monitored using modern, safe radar technology.

The integration into radio networks opens up new fields of application for switching devices and sensors - for example in the optimization of the internal material flow with eKanban systems. The prerequisite for this is the "radio capability" of the components, which does not necessarily have to be achieved by a built-in radio module. A separate external universal transmitter is completely sufficient.
