Selection Guide

How to Choose the Right Radar Level Sensor

Selecting the right DF572 version depends on the monitored medium, tank or site structure, network coverage, reporting interval, and platform requirements.

Medium and surfaceDF572 uses non-contact radar, so liquid or solid surfaces can be monitored without touching the medium after site conditions are confirmed.
Range and installationConfirm mounting height, target range up to 8 m, and the 25 cm blind area before rollout.
Outdoor conditionsUse IP68 / IK10 protection for exposed tanks, rivers, wastewater sites, industrial yards, and remote assets.
Network infrastructureChoose Cat-1 / 4G, Multi Tech Cat-M + NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, or NB-IoT according to coverage and customer system needs.
Power planningBattery life depends on reporting interval, cycle detection time, network type, ambient temperature, and wireless signal strength.
Platform workflowConfirm whether data should enter CNDINGTEK cloud, a customer platform, email/SMS alerts, dashboards, or API workflows.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about DF572 Radar Level Sensor

What is the measuring range of the DF572 radar level sensor?

DF572 supports non-contact level measurement up to 8 m, with a 25 cm blind area. Final installation should confirm mounting height, target surface, and tank or site structure.

What radar frequency does DF572 use?

DF572 uses 24GHz radar technology for non-contact liquid and solid level monitoring.

Which wireless versions are available for DF572?

DF572 is available with Cat-1 / 4G, Multi Tech Cat-M + NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, and NB-IoT wireless versions. BLE is used for configuration and debugging, not as the main data transmission link.

Is DF572 suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. DF572 is designed for outdoor level monitoring with IP68 protection and IK10 impact resistance for exposed tanks, containers, rivers, and industrial sites.

How long can the DF572 battery last?

DF572 uses ER26500 x 3 non-rechargeable lithium thionyl chloride batteries with 25500 mAh at 3.6 V. Datasheet reference life can exceed 5 years under stated reporting conditions, but actual life depends on reporting interval, network type, ambient temperature, and wireless signal strength.

What media can DF572 measure?

Because DF572 uses non-contact radar measurement, it can monitor liquid and solid surfaces without touching the medium. It is suitable for water, wastewater, oils, chemicals, and other media after installation conditions are confirmed.

Can DF572 connect to customer platforms?

Yes. DF572 data can be used with CNDINGTEK cloud applications or customer systems. Support covers protocol review, data parsing, SDK coordination, and platform integration after project confirmation.

Is DF572 a standard product or a customized product?

DF572 is a normally sold product with standard versions and customization support. Pricing is quotation-based after project requirements are reviewed.
