Autonomous radar sensor solution level/flow and display
CONTEXT :
Lagoon monitoring in the context of a call for tender, a water height/flow measurement sensors is required.
- A specific request for a display is also required. This display has a push button allowing instant measurement
- 12 treatment lagoons to be equipped
- The instrumentation solution must be autonomous in energy
- Sensors must send their data automatically to the client server/SCADA
- The ease of use and quick installation required
LA SOLUTION :
The example of a simple and autonomous installation of innovative instrumentation for Lagoon monitoring.
Radar sensor-based solutions (LNR06V4-82-LTE) + wired display (F0D00020):
- Battery powered water level sensors, internal battery with battery indicator integrated into the sensor. Change of battery and Sim card done on-site by the client.
- Integrated recorder with a capacity of 500,000 measures. Wireless radio setting using a USB/radio dongle kit named “Wiji”).
- Sensor equipped with a 2G/4G LTE modem. User-integrated and interchangeable communication card without factory return.
- The display is directly powered by the radar probe, and displays the values on demand via a push button located below the housing.
- Measurement of water level by radar placed on a Venturi channel. The level sensor has a conversion table to be filled.
- Possibility to start a water sampler program via a connection from the water level sensor connector.
- Solar panel powering is also possible, as well as the connection of a rain gauge to the radar sensor
The equipment installed:
Below are the presentations of the instrumentation installed at the various sites:
Radar water level sensor LNR06V4
The integrated radar level sensors are autonomous and communicate locally by radio and at a distance in 2G/4G. Electromagnetic in nature, the radar wave is not affected by particular exposures (wind, temperature variations).
Wired display F0D00020
The wired displays connect to:
– a A water level radar sensor LNR06V4
– A RG20 rain gauge
