Overview
The OPTIWAVE 1400 is a 2-wire 24 GHz radar (FMCW) level transmitter for liquids in water and wastewater applications. It is equally suited for continuous, non-contact level measurement of water from springs, rivers, lakes or the sea as well as rainwater, wastewater, sludge or other liquids in storage applications. The device features a robust 316L stainless steel housing and comes IP68 / NEMA 4X/6 rated for use in open air installations prone to flooding.
