Can Radar Measure All Types of Liquids? Absolutely Not—Here’s Why

Level meter /

In industrial automation systems, “level” may seem like a basic variable. But anyone with on-site experience knows: level measurement is an underrated technical challenge. You’re not dealing with laboratory-grade pure water, but with aggressive, sticky, volatile, or high-temperature liquids—each with its own “personality.” The wrong level device selection can lead to instrument failure, production stoppages,
