Radar Level Transmitter / Sensor / Meter – Geonica

High-Precision Non-Contact Water & Snow Level Monitoring for Rivers, Reservoirs & Industrial Applications

The Radar Level Transmitter – RADAR-1108 by Geonica is a high-accuracy non-contact level monitoring solution designed for measuring water level, snow depth, and liquid or solid surface levels in demanding outdoor environments. Using advanced 80 GHz radar technology, the sensor emits a continuous radar signal through its antenna, which reflects from the target surface and returns as an echo for precise distance and level calculation. This ensures highly reliable measurements without direct contact with the medium. It is especially suitable for rivers, lakes, reservoirs, flood basins, pumping stations, wastewater treatment plants, and snow monitoring applications. Since microwave transmission is not affected by temperature, pressure, humidity, wind, or atmospheric density, the RADAR-1108 delivers stable and accurate performance even in severe environmental conditions. The rugged IP68-rated housing makes it ideal for long-term outdoor installations, including coastal and harsh weather environments.

Key Features:

  • 📡 Advanced 80 GHz Radar Technology

    Uses continuous-wave 80 GHz radar for precise non-contact level measurement of water, snow, liquids, and solids with excellent signal focus and stability.

  • 📏 High Accuracy with 1 mm Resolution

    Provides programmable measurement range from 0–8 meters, with 1 mm resolution, ≤5 mm accuracy for individual measurements, and ≤1 mm accuracy for averaged values.

Key Features:

  • 🌦️ Unaffected by Weather Conditions

    Unlike ultrasonic sensors, radar measurements are not influenced by temperature, atmospheric pressure, wind, rain, humidity, or fog, ensuring dependable outdoor monitoring.

  • 🛡️ IP68 Rugged Outdoor Design

    Designed for severe environmental conditions with corrosion-resistant protection, making it ideal for coastal areas, salt fog exposure, and continuous field operation.

Applications:

  • 🌊 River, Lake & Reservoir Monitoring

    Ideal for continuous water level measurement in rivers, dams, lakes, and reservoirs for hydrological studies and water resource management.

  • 🌧️ Flood Warning & Rain Basin Monitoring

    Supports flood prevention systems by monitoring flood-prone zones, stormwater basins, and rain overflow channels in real time.

  • 🏭 Wastewater & Pumping Stations

    Used in wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations, and industrial liquid storage systems for reliable level monitoring.

  • ❄️ Snow Depth Monitoring

    Suitable for measuring snow accumulation and snow depth in meteorological and environmental monitoring systems.
