Incredibly flexible: 4 ways to mount radar sensors

There is a lot going on in the rough environment of a sewer or rain overflow basin. During heavy rainfall events, for example, the water level swells and recedes within a very short time. In order to register the event at all, the measurement intervals must be very short. This is where the radar sensor comes into its own.

The radar sensor is used for non-contact level measurement in harsh environments and provides live data (every 10 seconds) with a battery life of up to 10 years. It convinces by its high measuring accuracy. This accuracy can be guaranteed even in narrow shafts thanks to a low radiation angle of 4°. To avoid parallax during installation, there is a spirit level on the radar sensor.

This makes assembly even easier

The radar sensorbracket is made of stainless steel. The swivel arm allows the sensor to be aligned over the level to be measured. By means of a ball-and-socket joint, the alignment is subsequently made more precise. In addition, a laser distance meter can be attached directly to the sensor holder.

The 4 options briefly explained

Pipe mounting

The radar sensor is mounted using a pipe mounting flange suitable for pipe diameters of min. 50 mm up to max. 275 mm. The swivel arm is available in a length of 140 mm or 390 mm. Depending on the selected length , the distance between the wall between the wall and the centre of the sensor holder is 250 mm or 500 mm. You can find more information here.

Wall mounting

Mounting in the duct is done by means of a wall mounting flange (drill and screw). The swivel arm is available in a length of 140 mm or 390 mm. Depending on the selected length , the distance between the wall between the wall and the centre of the sensor holder is 250 mm or 500 mm. You can find more information here.

Securing water for future generations: implementing Water Vision 2100

Water is one of our most precious resources, but its sustainable use is becoming increasingly challenging. Climate change, increasing consumption and environmental pollution require innovative approaches to secure water supplies in the long term. The Water Vision 2100 of the Austrian Water and Waste Management Association (ÖWAV) and the Austrian Gas and Water Association (ÖVGW) shows what measures are necessary to protect water for future generations.

TOP 3 at the Lower Austrian Innovation Award: How our heavy rain early warning system is revolutionising flood protection

Extreme weather events are on the rise – and with them the risk of small-scale flooding caused by heavy rainfall and run-off. Traditional flood protection systems are often too slow to respond to these sudden events. Our innovative solution combines IoT sensors and artificial intelligence to provide early warning to affected communities and emergency services – and was selected as one of the top 3 in the Lower Austrian Innovation Award 2025.

Blue-green infrastructure: shaping sustainable water management with smart technology

As climate change and urbanisation continue, the design of sustainable cities is becoming increasingly important. Blue-green infrastructure is a key approach that combines natural and technical solutions to sustainably use water resources, prevent flooding and improve quality of life. But how can technological innovation help make this vision a reality?
