Pulsar R80 – Setting New Standards for Non- Contact Radar
Introducing the Pul- sar® Model R80 – 80 GHz FMCW Radar Level Transmitter with FMCW technology and an 80 GHz operating frequency for superior performance, smaller antennas and en- hanced accuracy. The
Pulsar R80 brings a sophisticated simplicity to Magnetrol’s best-in-class radar portfolio. Furthermore, Magnetrol’s configuration wizards and proactive diagnostics make commissioning and troubleshooting easier than ever. The Model R80 is minimally affected by turbulence, foam, or excessive vapours, often the downfall of ultrasonic transmitters and some radar products. The smaller antennas and narrower beam angles allow it to be installed into vessels with smaller process connections and those with internal obstructions that must be avoided.
Key Features:
• Multivariable two-wire, 24 VDC loop-powered transmitter for level, volume, or flow • 80 GHz signal with beam angles as narrow as 4 degrees
• Measuring range of 30 meters (100 feet) • Proactive diagnostics and troubleshooting tips • Transmitter head replaceable without breaking process seal
• SIL 2 compliant with 92.3% SFF • Global hazardous area approvals

Axair’s ATEX Fume Extraction Portfolio Increases with the ATEX S50
Axair announce the release of their new ATEX S50 polypropylene fans, complementing their existing range of corrosion resistant fume extraction fans. The S50 is the largest and most powerful fan in their ‘S’ range, manufactured by SEAT, with the new version available in ATEX Zone 2, in response to increased demand.
The ATEX S50 fans have been designed to remove fumes from highly corrosive or toxic environments where there is a risk of fire or explosion. They can be supplied with increased safety Ex ec or Ex d (explosion proof) motors to order. The ATEX S50 fans provide high air flow against medium system pressures, achieving airflows of 5000 to 16000 m3/h.
The ATEX S50 is supplied with an inverter as standard, benefitting from an easy stop/start function and enhanced speed control which allows for efficient energy consumption. The molded carbon loaded polypropylene prevents static discharges and is a corrosion resistant material which can withstand harsh chemical environments and adverse weather conditions. It holds many benefits over GRP and stainless steel materials.
As the exclusive UK distributor for SEAT, Axair are proud to work closely with the fan manufacturer to deliver superior corrosive fume, chemical, ATEX and specially designed fan components to the UK market. SEAT is the leading EU manufacturer of plastic fans with more than 35 years experience in their field.
Axair’s team have undertaken extensive training in ATEX regulations but have a duty of care to ensure the supply of a suitable fan based upon a customer’s correct ATEX coding specifications. ATEX has to be understood as an ever evolving subject requiring competence and training that is now provided by UK notified bodies and consultancies.

Even in deep tanks, ifm senses levels precisely
With the new LW2720 radar level sensor from ifm electronic, accurately measuring the level of liquid media in large tanks and vessels is no longer a problem; this innovative sensor has a measuring accuracy of ± 2 mm at ranges up to 10 m. In addition, it is fully certified for use in hygienic areas, making it an ideal choice for food and pharmaceutical applications, including those that involve CIP and SIP operations.
The ground-breaking LW2720 measures levels using an FMCW radar-based system operating at a frequency of 80 GHz. This provides stable and accurate non-contact measurements that are unaffected by changing pressure, temperature and the presence of steam or condensates. In addition, the 80GHz operating frequency of the sensors provides a very narrow beam angle that gives a reliable level
measurement even in applications where agitators, stirrers and scrapers are present.
Compact and very easy to install and commission, LW2720 radar level sensors are readily parameterised via their integral IO Link interface, which can also be used to check settings and to monitor measurements. As well as the IO Link interface, the sensors can be configured to provide either one analogue output and one switching output or two switching outputs. This wide range of output options facilitates integration with almost any type of control system.
All stainless construction and IP rating up to IP69K ensure that LW2720 sensors will provide long reliable service even in demanding environments and applications. They can be used with media over the temperature range -40 to +150 ºC, and a pressure rating of -1 to 8 bar. To complement these sensors, ifm offers an extensive range of accessories, including hygienic mounting adaptors, and pre-terminated M12 connecting cables
