ABLE Fusion is a level measurement system which combines the operation of a float operated magnetic level indicator with a guided wave radar to offer two independent proven level technologies in one system.
The magnetic level indicator offers a clear visual level display and can be supplied with a reed chain transmitter, magnetostrictive transmitter or switches for high and low level alarm requirements, operating in conjunction with the level indicator float.
The guided wave radar offers an independent level measurement based on high frequency microwave pulses that are transmitted along a guide rod. The pulses are reflected back by the liquid surface to a receiver, providing a level measurement accuracy of +/-3mm.
The visual indication or transmitter output from the magnetic level indicator can be compared to the guided wave radar to provide the confidence of accurate liquid level measurement, either locally or in a control room.
The combination of technologies provide the operator with a fault tolerant, reliable level system suitable for applications where critical level measurement and redundancy is required, particularly in the offshore, petrochemical, power and pharmaceutical industries.
