Problems solved by technology

However, a significant disadvantage of optical sensors is their increased maintenance requirements, as in the previously listed fields, after a few thousand operating hours, when contamination of the sensors can be observed, which seriously impairs the measurements
Also, especially when used in production lines, measurements can be compromised by oil vapors or other aerosols that form fog, thus causing additional contamination of the optical sensor

Abstract

The invention relates to a adar measuring device for factory automation and / or logistics automation, operation method and application thereof. The radar measuring device is provided with a supply unitfor supplying downstream units with energy, a communication unit for receiving data from a superordinate unit and for transmitting data of the radar measuring device to the superordinate unit, an evaluation and control unit for the control of a downstream high-frequency unit and for the evaluation of measurement data determined by the high-frequency unit, whereby the communication unit is designed as a single-drop interface. High radar resolution and good beam focusing can be displayed, and the sensor can be provided at moderate prices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a radar measuring device, its method of operation and its use, in particular to a radar sensor with a communication interface. Background technique [0002] Radar sensors are well known from the prior art and are frequently used, for example, in the field of process automation. In recent years, radar-based level gauges have been widely used in process automation due to the many advantages of radar measurement technology. [0003] The term "automation technology" refers to the technical aspect which includes all measures for operating machines and systems without human intervention, so that the aspect of process automation can be understood as a minimum degree of automation. The goal of process automation is to automate the interaction between the various components of a production facility in the fields of chemistry, petroleum, paper, cement, marine navigation or mining. For this purpose, a variety of sensors are known which ...
