Micropilot - Model FMR56 -Radar Measurement Time-of-Flight
Economically efficient basis model for level measurement in solids. Micropilot FMR56 is particularly designed for light-duty process conditions as they occur in silos or bins for solids. Micropilot free space radar is used for continuous, non-contact level measurement in powdery to granular bulk solids. Dust, filling noises, temperature layers and gas layers do not affect the measurement.
-
Reliable 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
-
Hardware and software developed according to IEC 61508 up to SIL3 (in homogeneous redundancy)
-
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
PP-plated horn antenna can be easily aligned to the surface of the solids by the mounting bracket or a turnable seal.
