TRACER 1000™ 2G GUIDED WAVE RADAR LEVEL TRANSMITTER
TRACER 1000™ 2G GWR LEVEL TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION Featuring TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) technology, the Tracer 1000™ second generation Guided Wave Radar level transmitter provides continuous level measurement in liquids, solids and slurries. This innovative device has almost no installation restrictions in tanks, silo’s and bins up to 65 feet. The Tracer 1000™ 2G has a fully isolated 4-20 mA output that can be scaled for tank level or distance. The unit requires 18 to 30 VDC power. The 4- wire device comes standard with a RS-485 COMMS output can be connected to the Tracer Talker™ software for custom configurations and detailed level processing analysis. The Tracer 1000™ 2G ships pre-calibrated precisely for the customer’s application for quick installation and setup. If adjustment is needed in the field the RS485 Communication Tool and Tracer Talker™ software is recommended. TDR technology is not affected by pressure, vacuum, temperature, viscosity, foam or dust. Changes in dielectric constant or coating of the probe do not affect the level measurement due to the dynamic sensing technology programmed into the artificial intelligence of the Tracer 1000™ 2G GWR level transmitter.
TRACER 1000™ 2G GWR LEVEL TRANSMITTER TDR TECHNOLOGY TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) technology: low-energy, high-frequency electromagnetic impulses, generated by the sensor’s circuitry, are propagated along the probe which is immerged in the liquid to be measured. When these impulses hit the surface of the liquid, part of the impulse energy is reflected back up the probe to the circuitry which then calculates the fluid level from the time difference between the impulses sent and the impulses reflected. The sensor can output the analyzed level as a continuous measurement reading through its analog output, or it can convert the values into freely positionable switching output signals. TDR-Sensors are also known as Guided Radars or Guided Wave Radars.

ABOUT FLO-CORP FLO-CORP is a private, family-owned company that is committed to providing properly selected and configured flow, level, and monitoring products with a focus on innovation and customer service. In 1988, FLO-CORP was incorporated in the State of Ohio and started as a small distribution company. In the last seven years, FLO-CORP has moved past distribution and into manufacturing our own line of products. Through manufacturing, we have gained more control over origin of product, quality, and lead times. Furthermore, FLO-CORP now has creative control in the development of new products. We can focus on adding the functionality and features that will best serve our customers. FLO-CORP’s management of quality, lead times, and innovation come together allowing us to provide more product value to our customers. We remain committed to personal customer interaction, where help can still be found without hearing an automated phone system. The FLO-CORP family is dedicated to working hard for our customers by using over three decades of combined experience in flow, level, and display.
