Pulsar® Model R96 Pulse Burst Radar Level Transmitter D E S C R I P T I O N The Pulsar® R96 Radar transmitter is the latest generation of Magnetrol® 24 V DC, loop-powered, noncontact radar transmitters. Enhanced performance and innovative diagnostics bring simplicity to an often complicated technology. This latest entry into the radar level measurement field is designed to provide unparalleled performance and ease of use. PULSAR non-contact radar is the perfect compliment to the MAGNETROL Eclipse® Model 706 Guided Wave Radar transmitter. Together, these transmitters offer the ultimate solution to the vast majority of process level applications. F E A T U R E S T E C H N O L O G Y • Multivariable two-wire, 24 VDC loop-powered transmitter for level or volume The PULSAR Radar transmitter is based on pulse burst radar technology combined with equivalent time sampling circuitry. Short bursts of 6 GHz microwave energy are emitted and subsequently reflected from the liquid level surface. Distance is calculated by the equation D = Transit time (round-trip)/2. Liquid level is then calculated by applying the tank height value. • Performance not process dependent (changing specific gravity and dielectric have no effect) • 6 GHz operating frequency offers superior performance in the tougher applications with turbulence, foam, and heavy vapors • Echo Rejection setup is simple, intuitive and effective • Antenna designs to +200 °C (+400 °F), -1.0 to 51.7 bar (-14.7 to 750 psig) • Range up to 40 m (130 ft) A P P L I C A T I O N S • Quick connect/disconnect antenna coupling allows vessel to remain sealed MEDIA: Liquids and slurries; hydrocarbons to waterbased media (dielectric 1.7–100) • Extremely low output at antenna: < .01 mW (avg), < 2 mW (max); hundreds of times less than a cell phone VESSELS: Most metal and concrete process or storage vessels up to rated temperature and pressure. Pits and sumps as well as glass-lined tanks. • 4-button keypad and graphic LCD display allow for convenient viewing of configuration parameters and echo curve CONDITIONS: Virtually all level measurement and control applications including process conditions exhibiting varying specific gravity and dielectric, visible vapors, high fill/empty rates, turbulence, low to moderate foam and buildup. • Proactive diagnostics advise not only what is wrong, but also offer troubleshooting tips • Available for use in SIL 2 Loops (92.7 % SFF, with full FMEDA report available) • PACTware™ PC Program and enhanced DTMs for advanced configuration and troubleshooting • Available with HART® or FOUNDATION fieldbus™ digital output T E C H N O L O G Y P U L S E B U R S T R A D A R Pulse PULSAR R96 is a top-mounted, downward-looking pulse burst radar operating at 6 GHz. Unlike true pulse devices (e.g. ECLIPSE Guided Wave Radar) which transmit a single, sharp (fast rise-time) waveform of wide-band energy (Figure 1), PULSAR emits short bursts of 6 GHz energy (Figure 2) and measures the transit time of the signal reflected off the liquid surface. Distance is calculated utilizing the equation Distance equals the Speed of light multiplied by the transit time divided by two (Distance = C × Transit Time/2), then developing the level value by factoring in tank height and other configuration information (Figure 3). The exact reference point for distance and level calculations is the sensor reference point (bottom of an NPT thread, top of a BSP thread, or face of a flange). The exact level measurement is extracted from false target reflections and other background noise via the use of sophisticated signal processing. The new PULSAR Model R96 circuitry is extremely energy efficient so no duty cycling is necessary to accomplish effective measurement. Figure 1 Pulse Burst 1 ns 500 ns Figure 2 Distance = c × (time ÷ 2) Figure 3 2 O P E R A T I O N A L C O N S I D E R A T I O N S Radar applications are characterized by three basic conditions: • Dielectric (process medium) Sensor Reference Point Top Blocking Distance • Distance (measuring range) • Disturbances (turbulence, foam, false targets, multiple reflections and rate of change) Safety Zone Sensor Level Distance Measurement Region Tank Height The PULSAR R96 Radar transmitter is offered with four antenna configurations: • Polypropylene Dielectric Rod Level Trim • TFE Dielectric Rod Level = Tank Height – Distance • All-Plastic Dielectric Rod: Polypropylene or Halar® Bottom Blocking Distance • 4" (100 mm) Horn • 6" (150 mm) Horn Distance = Sensor Level Distane - Level Trim Maximum measuring range (distance) is measured from the sensor reference point (bottom of NPT thread, top of BSP thread, or face of flange) to the bottom of the tank. Refer to Figure 4. Ideally, the 6" (150 mm) horn antenna should be used to ensure the best possible performance in all operational conditions. Since that is impractical, other antennas are available. The chart below shows the maximum measuring range of each antenna based on dielectric and turbulence. Refer to Figure 5. Figure 4 Sensor Reference Point (NPT) Noise and media buildup drastically decrease reliable measurement. Although it is theoretically possible to measure a liquid level on the antenna, liquid should not be allowed closer than 50 mm (2") from the bottom of the antenna due to the decrease in accuracy when liquid level is present on the antenna. Refer to Figure 6.

L O C A T I O N Ideally, the Radar transmitter should be mounted 1⁄2 radius from center of the tank providing an unobstructed signal path to the liquid surface where it should illuminate (with microwave energy) the largest possible surface area. Do not install in center of tank top or within 45 cm (18") of tank wall. Tank walls may produce reflections that must be minimized during field configuration (Antenna Orientation). Refer to Figure 7. B E A M A N G L E The various antenna designs exhibit different beam patterns. Figure 9 shows the beam spread for all PULSAR antennas. Ideally the beam pattern should illuminate the maximum liquid surface with a minimum striking other objects in the vessel including the tank wall. Use these drawings to determine the optimum installation location. Figure 7 O B S T R U C T I O N S Almost any object that falls within the beam pattern will cause reflections that may be misinterpreted as a false liquid level. Although the PULSAR Model R96 has a powerful Echo Rejection routine, all possible precautions should be taken to minimize false target reflections with proper installation and orientation.

The following are examples of when Guided Wave Radar is recommended. • Extremely low dielectric media (εr<1.7) • Very weak reflections from the liquid surface (particularly during turbulence) can cause poor performance. • Tanks heavily cluttered with false targets (mixers, pumps, ladders, pipes, etc.) • During times of very low liquid levels of low dielectric media, the metal tank bottom may be detected, which can deteriorate performance. 8 • Foam can either absorb or reflect the microwave energy depending upon the depth, dielectric, density and wall thickness of the bubbles. Due to typical variations in the amount (depth) of foam, it is impossible to quantify performance. It may be possible to receive most, some or none of the transmitted energy. • Extremely high liquid level (Overflow) conditions when liquid very near the antenna can cause erroneous readings and measurement failure.
