The Krohne OPTIWAVE 15xx „Standard“ version is aimed at applications where IP68 approval is not a must. It offers an alternative for adapting the radar level devices with 80-GHz-technology flexibly and cost-effectively to the customer's requirements.

At the same time, it offers a price advantage over the IP68 models, whose other approvals also apply to the new version. It also features the OPTICHECK technology built-in self-diagnostic function, which enables continuous encoder testing and field verification with on-site reporting, without process interruption or device removal.

Cost-effetive solution

Launched in June 2024, the OPTIWAVE 15xx series has become a proven solution that makes 80-GHz radar technology with flush-mounted PVDF lens antenna in combination with HART and Bluetooth available at low cost for simple applications. The devices are characterised by their compact design, robust construction and intuitive commissioning via Bluetooth with the OPTICHECK Level mobile app.

The OPTIWAVE 15xx series is rounded off by a specially tailored range of accessories that make installation and positioning of the devices easier.
