Oil & Gas / Fuel Storage
80GHz Radar Level Sensor for Oil Storage Tanks
A buyer guide for evaluating non-contact 80GHz radar on oil, fuel, and chemical storage tanks, including installation and documentation checks.
The Buyer Problem
Oil and fuel tanks often have vapor, temperature swing, and hazardous-area requirements. Contact probes foul; ultrasonic sensors struggle with vapor and foam.
Recommended Approach
Evaluate the AM-RL80 against the tank drawing, process conditions, mounting geometry, required signal, and site classification. Confirm the exact model configuration and current documentation before ordering.
What to verify before selection
Published summaries do not replace the current datasheet, quotation, or model-specific compliance documents.
- Confirm measuring range, blind zone, accuracy, and antenna choice in the current model datasheet
- Match hazardous-area marking and certificate scope to the exact quoted model and installation zone
- Review nozzle size, tank internals, foam, vapor, temperature, and pressure with engineering
- Confirm power supply and output requirements for the control or tank-gauging system
- Request the current calibration, inspection, and compliance documents required for the project
