Bulk solids applications
The rinsing connection is used to blow compressed air into the
antenna area of the radar sensor.This protects the surfaces of the
antennasystemagainstdustorcondensation.Youcannddetailed
specicationsontheairvolume/pressureinchapter"Technical data".
Liquid applications
The rinsing connection is used for cyclic injection of clean water or
someothersuitablecleaninguidintotheantennaareaoftheradar
sensor. This protects the surface of the antenna system against
buildupordeposits.Continuousinjectionofuidisnotrecommended.
Theoptionalreuxvalvekeepsprocessairoutofthesystem.
