LX 80 35 Datasheet Web

The LX-80-35 Level Sensor is a contactless radar level sensor that uses a 77-81 GHz FMCW radar to measure water levels within 35 meters with 2 mm accuracy. It has a narrow 5 degree beam width and interfaces including RS-232, RS-485 Modbus, SDI-12, and 4-20 mA. The IP68 rated sensor is designed for water level monitoring in rivers, reservoirs, and industries and can be remotely configured over digital communication interfaces.
