SAAB G3
The Saab G3 (3rd Generation) TankRadar was released in 1995 and continue to undergo improvements and cost reductions. The Saab G3 systems include liquid gas tanks and the new G3 system was fully integrated with capabilities for cargo handling.
After the Saab G3 a new intelligent system known as STaR was released. This system uses transmitters that can offer a higher accuracy and also the possibility to include a cost effective redundancy where more than one electrically independent radar level transmitters can share antenna and enclosure. Usually one transmitter will be used as a high level alarm instead of another system.
Advantages of using Saab G3 tank radar's for tank gauging are: Radar waves are not going to become stuck, radar waves cannot be obstructed or affected by the atmosphere above the product being measured in the tank and therefore will not produce false results, the only part located within any enclosure will be an antenna, as there are no moving parts you are getting higher reliability, results are extremely accurate, the electronic box can be changed within closed conditions.
