The MT5000 is a guided wave radar level transmitter for measuring liquid, slurry, and solid levels. It has a dual-compartment enclosure of cast aluminum with polyester powder coat or 316 stainless steel, rated IP66, TYPE 4X. It supports 4-20 mA HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus output, with supply voltages of 13.5-36 Vdc and 9-32 Vdc respectively. Measuring accuracy is ±5 mm up to 15.24 m and ±25 mm up to 66 m, with a maximum probe length of 217 ft. Probes are available in 304/L, 316/L stainless steel, Hastelloy, Monel, titanium, and Inconel 625. Process temperatures range from -60°F to 400°F standard, extending to 800°F with options; pressures up to 5000 psig. A graphic display shows waveforms, damping is field-adjustable from 0.1 to 36 seconds, and a 20-point linearization table is available. Reverse polarity protection is included.
The MT5000 Series Guided Wave Radar transmitters feature a graphic display incorporated into an all digital electronics module. Using this new format K-TEK has been able to add waveform screens to the modular electronics along with easy to follow multiple choice setup menus. These menus can be changed to many different languages for easy commissioning throughout the world. MT5000 Series Guided Wave Radar transmitters provide superior performance in tough applications. Pulses of microwave energy are directed to the product surface using a rigid rod or flexible cable type probe. This assembly has no moving parts and no loss of energy due to beam divergence. Multiple coupler and probe types are available to accommodate applications such as knock out drums, feed water heaters, production vessels and separators. 316L stainless steel is the standard probe material however materials such as Hastelloy C-276 and Monel are available for use in acidic or caustic services.
