Microwave Barrier Level Measurement
TSB supplies Microwave Barrier Level Measurement solutions in Jordan for reliable, non-contact point level detection and bulk solids monitoring. The technology is suitable for applications where mechanical or contact-based level switches may be affected by abrasion, buildup, high temperature or difficult installation conditions.
The measuring principle uses a microwave transmitter and receiver positioned opposite each other. When bulk material interrupts or attenuates the microwave signal, the system detects the change and provides reliable point level indication. Measurement can also be performed through suitable non-metallic vessel walls, enabling completely non-contact installation.

Why Choose Microwave Barrier Level Measurement?
Microwave Barrier Level Measurement provides a robust non-contact solution for detecting bulk solids where conventional contact technologies may be difficult to apply.
Because microwave signals can pass through suitable non-metallic materials, the transmitter and receiver can often be installed outside the vessel or chute. This reduces direct contact with abrasive or aggressive products and can simplify maintenance.
The technology is also largely unaffected by demanding process conditions and can be adapted for high-temperature and high-pressure applications. In addition to point level detection, the same measuring principle can be used for bulk flow monitoring, object detection, counting and deposit monitoring.
For plant operators, this provides reliable detection, reduced mechanical wear, flexible installation and effective monitoring of difficult bulk-solid applications.
