SM MARINE SERVICE™ (https://www.smmarineservice.com/) supplies this Autronica / Kongsberg radar tank gauge level sensing unit with its round transmitter PCB and Sivers IMA SU7636X/01 microwave module. Units of this design are used in the Autronica GL-90 / GL-100 / GL-120 tank level gauging systems installed on oil product and chemical tankers, which are today supported by Kongsberg Maritime.
The level sensing unit is mounted on top of the cargo tank. Its microwave transmitter sends a narrow radar beam (about 10 GHz centre frequency for the GLA-100, as published) through the antenna to the liquid surface. The reflected signal returns to the receiver, and the distance (ullage) is calculated. The result is sent to the signal processing unit (GLK-100) and to the cargo control room.

Safety note: the unit is installed in hazardous (Ex) areas on tankers. Follow gas-free and permit-to-work rules, isolate power and keep the Ex protection intact. Calibration must follow the maker's procedure.
SM MARINE SERVICE™ can supply this radar tank gauge level sensing unit and help source Autronica / Kongsberg GL-series parts. For a quotation send the gauge model, system type (GL-90 / GL-100 / GL-120), nameplate and PCB photos, quantity and delivery port. We ship worldwide.
Many tankers still run Autronica GL-series gauging. Replacing a single level sensing unit or its electronics is much cheaper than a full system upgrade.
Q: Who made this radar gauge?
A: Autronica; the product line is now supported by Kongsberg Maritime.
Q: Is this a GLA-100?
A: The design matches the GLA-100 type; no nameplate is visible, so the exact model is not verified.
Q: What is SU7636X/01?
A: A Sivers IMA microwave module fitted on the transmitter PCB.
Q: What is the serial number of the module?
A: S/N 83224 as read from the label (please confirm).
Q: What is the PCB number?
A: The side marking appears as "GLD-91 SIDE B" – not verified.
Q: Which unit does it connect to?
A: GLK-100 Signal Processing Unit in the GL-100 system.
Q: What frequency does it use?
A: About 10 GHz centre frequency is published for the GLA-100.
Q: Can GL-100 systems be upgraded?
A: Kongsberg offers K-Gauge CLS 600 as an upgrade for GL-90 / GL-100 / GL-120.
Q: What condition is it?
A: Refurbished; availability subject to confirmation.
Q: Do you ship worldwide?
A: Yes, SM MARINE SERVICE™ ships worldwide.
