Abstract
Level gauges for glass furnaces are critical control elements in the production process. The authors designed and tested an interferometric radar with characteristics and performances meeting the harsh working conditions in a glass furnace and the strict issues of this kind of sensor. The equipment has been tested in a real furnace.
