Level Transmitters

ABLE Instruments are a long-standing supplier of Magnetrol continuous level transmitters, offering a wide selection of radar and ultrasonic technologies for reliable, non-contact level measurement in process and storage applications.

Magnetrol transmitters are trusted for their robust construction, accuracy, and long-term stability in demanding industrial environments. With options suitable for everything from water and wastewater to chemicals, food & beverage, oil & gas and power generation, Magnetrol devices can be configured for virtually any application. Their radar and guided wave radar models provide highly accurate continuous level measurement, even in the presence of vapours, foam, and changing dielectric conditions.

ABLE’s range includes transmitters for both standard and hazardous area use, with global approvals and a wide choice of wetted materials and process connections. All products are supported by our in-house instrumentation experts, offering advice on specification, installation, and ongoing technical support.

In addition to Magnetrol, we also offer the Siemens SITRANS Probe LU240 as a secondary solution for specific applications. This ultrasonic level transmitter delivers accurate measurements up to 12 m and features Siemens’ Process Intelligence echo suppression, built-in temperature compensation, and HART communication. It is ideal for open vessels, sumps, and solids silos, particularly where low power or remote commissioning is required.

Whether you require a reliable level transmitter for a standard tank or a custom solution for a hazardous or corrosive environment, ABLE can help select the right product for your process.

Model R82
The R82 Pulse Burst Radar transmitters emit short bursts 26GHz of energy to a liquid surface and incorporate ultra-high speed timing circuitry to measure the duration of the of the return signal reflected off the liquid surface. Distance is then calculated using the equation:

Distance = C x Transit Time/2, (where C = Speed of Light)

Liquid level is then calculated by applying the user’s tank height and sensor offset values.

Model R96
The Pulsar Model R96 is the latest generation of loop-powered, 24 VDC, non-contact radar level transmitters. It has a longer measurement range, improved diagnostics and is easier to use than most loop-powered radar transmitters.

Its 6GHz operating frequency offers superior performance in the tougher applications of turbulence, foam, and heavy vapours. It has a range of up to 130 ft and is SIL 2 capable with Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) = 92.7% (FMEDA available upon request)

Model R80
Completing the Pulsar family of non-contact radar transmitters is the Model R80. This loop-powered device utilises Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology at 80GHz for enhanced performance , proactive diagnostics, and various configuration wizards for simplicity in deployment.

Its 4-button keypad and graphic LCD facilitate convenience viewing of configuration parameters and echo curve. As with the R96, the R80 is SIL2 certified (92.3% SFF with full FMEDA report available).
