What Is the TA840 Radar Monitoring System?

The TA840 is an explosion-proof radar-based level measurement device designed to continuously monitor liquid levels inside marine and offshore tanks.

Unlike conventional float-type level sensors, radar technology provides highly accurate measurements without direct contact with the liquid surface.

This makes the TA840 ideal for:

  • Cargo Tanks
  • Ballast Tanks
  • Fuel Oil Tanks
  • Diesel Oil Tanks
  • Sludge Tanks
  • Chemical Tanks
  • Offshore Storage Tanks

Main Features

Non-Contact Radar Measurement

Measures tank levels without physical contact with liquid contents.

High Accuracy

Provides reliable and precise level readings.

Explosion-Proof Design

Suitable for hazardous marine environments.

Continuous Monitoring

Real-time tank level information.

Corrosion Resistance

Designed for harsh offshore conditions.

Long Service Life

Robust construction for marine applications.

Low Maintenance

Minimal moving parts reduce maintenance requirements.

Integration Capability

Can connect with vessel automation systems.

Working Principle

The TA840 system operates using radar wave technology.

Step 1

The radar transmitter emits microwave signals toward the liquid surface.

Step 2

The signal reflects from the liquid level.

Step 3

The reflected signal returns to the radar sensor.

Step 4

The system calculates the distance based on signal travel time.

Step 5

The measured distance is converted into an accurate tank level reading.

Step 6

Level data is transmitted to monitoring and automation systems.
