Radar measurement Time-of-Flight Micropilot FMR52

For level measurement in aggressive liquids or applications with hygiene requirement


For applications in aggressive liquids Micropilot FMR52 offers extraordinary advantages with its completely PTFE-filled and flush-mounted horn antenna. The FMR52 is also the sensor for hygiene-sensitive applications in the food and life sciences industry - ASME BPE, USP Class VI, 3-A and EHEDG approvals. Micropilot is used for continuous, non-contact level measurement of liquids, pastes and slurries. The measurement is not affected by changing media, temperature changes, gas blankets or vapors.

Benefits

  • Hardware and software developed according to IEC 61508 up to SIL3 (in homogeneous redundancy)

  • Reliable non-contact measurement even for changing product and process conditions

  • HistoROM data management concept for fast and easy commissioning, maintenance and diagnostics

  • Highest reliability even in the presence of obstructions in the vessel due to new Multi-Echo Tracking evaluation

  • Heartbeat Technology for a cost-effective and safe plant operation during the entire life cycle

  • Seamless integration into control or asset management systems and intuitive, menu-guided operation concept (on-site or via the control system)

  • World's easiest proof test concept for SIL and WHG saves time and cost
