HORSHAM, PA ¿ AMETEK Drexelbrook has introduced a complete range of radar level products backed by the full field support and technical expertise of one of the most respected names in level measurement instrumentation. ¿AMETEK Drexelbrook is the acknowledged leader in RF/ capacitance level measurement with an excellent position in ultrasonic products as well. Now with a complete line of radar level gauges, we¿re able to provide our customers with the best solution for all of their level measurement needs,¿ notes Jim McCrone, Director of Sales & Marketing for AMETEK Drexelbrook. Radar is one of the most accurate choices for process vessel and storage tank applications that require continuous level measurement under the most demanding conditions. AMETEK Drexelbrook¿s radar level gauges incorporate technology developed by KROHNE ¿ the European leader in level and flow measurement. KROHNE technology has been proven in installations worldwide across a wide range of applications. ¿Partnering with Drexelbrook is a win-win situation for all concerned,¿ said Jack Evans, President and CEO of KROHNE, Inc. ¿Both Drexelbrook and KROHNE customers benefit from having the best radar technology available in the industry. KROHNE is pleased to be working with the leading manufacturer of level-measurement products and a company that truly provides level-measurement solutions for its customers.¿ AMETEK Drexelbrook¿s level radar family utilizes Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology that often is preferred over Pulsed Time of Flight (PTOF) radar because of its superior signal processing capabilities. The FMCW method continuously measures a mixed differential frequency, whereas PTOF measures only discrete periods of time. Because the FMCW sweep is linear, the low frequency of the mixed signals (200 to 5000 Hz) allows continuous signal processing and linearization. The FMCW radar is able to ¿see¿ more, while suppressing spurious signal reflections, ensuring a highly reliable and accurate measurement. AMETEK Drexelbrook is a unit of AMETEK, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electric motors with annual sales of $1 billion.
