By Sivers Ima Ab, PRNESunday, January 24, 2010
KISTA, Sweden, January 25 - This remote sensing module is capable of measuring distance and velocity
with high accuracy. The measurements are based on radio technology, which has
many advantages compared to other methods such as optic, inductive,
capacitive, ultrasonic and mechanical means of measurements.

Typical applications are level gauge measurement, collision avoidance in
industrial applications, speed and distance measurements etc.
The radio based measurement technology is very robust and the method
eliminates problems in harsh environments that inductive, capacitive and
mechanical methods suffer from. It is not sensitive to dusty, misty
environments and acoustic layers in ambient air or liquids. Since this is a
method of non contact measurements it does not affect sensitive objects with
scratching etc. Also, the modules contain no moving parts.
The output signal from these units is typically below 100 kHz. It can
easily be interfaced to low frequency processing electronic circuits.
Depending on the application, different modules operating at different radio
frequencies are available
A complete kit for easy evaluation and control of the unit from a PC is
available.
The product family consists of:
Product number Description RS3400S/00 Sensor operating in the 4.75-5.25 GHz frequency range RS3400X/00 Sensor operating in the 9.25-10.75 GHz frequency range RS3400K/00 Sensor operating in the 24-25.5 GHz frequency range CO1000A/00 Controller board for easy evaluation
