Ott RLS - Radar Level Sensor
Product Number: 6310900192SOverview
The Ott RLS is a non-contact radar level sensor with pulse radar technology. The Ott RLS offers a large measurement range with a small blanking distance and narrow beam width and it easily connects to most dataloggers. The RLS has extremely low power consumption and is ideal for remote or solar powered sites.
Benefits
Measurements are unaffected by air temperature, humidity, flood events, floating debris, or contaminated water; reduces the likelihood of missing data and reduces data post processing
Unobtrusive appearance is ideal for urban installation sites or sites prone to vandalism.
Flat antenna design eliminates nesting areas for insects and periodic maintenance requirement.
Connects to most data loggers via standard communication interfaces, SDI-12 or 4-20 mA; no need for additional PC software.
Light weight compact design facilitates easy mounting on bridges, extension mounting bracket or inside a small protective housing.
Ideal for remote or solar powered sites; requires only 12 mA when active.
