R-GAGE QT50R-AFH Radar Sensor (RAdio Detection And Ranging)
The R-GAGE sensor emits a well-defined beam of high-frequency radio waves from an internal antenna. Some of this emitted energy reflects back to thereceiving antenna.
Signal processing electronics in the sensor determine the distance from the sensor to the object based on the time delay of the return signal.
The sensor can be configured (via DIP switches) to sense objects up to a specific distance, ignoring objects beyond this distance (also called background suppression).
• Can be used for a wide range of applications
• FMCW (true-presence) radar detects moving and stationary objects
• Rugged IP67 housing withstands harsh environments
• Higher sensitivity and longer range
• Adjustable sensing field — ignores objects beyond setpoint
• Easy setup and configuration of range, sensitivity, and output with simple DIP switches
• Sensing functions are unaffected by wind, falling rain or snow, fog, humidity, airtemperatures, or light
• Sensor operates in Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) telecommunication band
• Rugged IP67 housing withstands harsh environments
