2. Function
The ProGap 2.0 is a non-contact microwave barrier. The sensor can be used on metallic and non-metallic
pipes, tanks, manholes, bellows, etc. The microwave measure through non-conductive materials, such as
plastics, glass, etc. This makes it possible to detect with the sensor from the outside or through a window.
In this way, the measurement can be completely decoupled from the process. For example to measure
aggressive, abrasive or lumpy materials.
Various process adapters can be used to solve applications with temperatures up to 1000 °C, pressure up to
20 bar and all Dust-Ex-Zones. The maximum distance to be monitored between sender and receiver is 25 m.
