PTFE vs. PFA for Radar Level Meter Antennas: Which One Should You Choose?

Radar level transmitters are widely used in aggressive chemical applications such as strong acids, alkalis, solvents, pharmaceutical liquids, and corrosive process tanks. But in real projects, one question often comes up: Why is PTFE sufficient in some radar level applications, while others specifically recommend PFA? Many people assume: “PFA is more expensive, so it must […]

Radar Level Meters: High Frequency vs Low Frequency – Which Has Better Penetration?

1. How Radar Level Meters Measure Liquid Level Radar level meters use the Time-of-Flight (TOF) principle: the transmitter emits a microwave pulse, which reflects off the liquid surface and returns to the sensor. The instrument calculates the distance based on the round-trip travel time. Formula: D=c×t2D = frac{c times t}{2} ​ where: DD= distance to
