FMR30B

Radar level measurement is based on the Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) principle and uses a non-contact top-down measurement method. The antenna transmits a continuously frequency-modulated signal, which is reflected by the medium surface and mixed with the reference signal to generate a beat frequency. By analyzing the frequency difference, the system calculates the signal travel time and determines the distance to the medium surface. The actual level value is calculated based on the measured distance and the preset empty tank height. FMCW radar technology provides high measurement accuracy and strong interference resistance, making it suitable for demanding process applications, although it has a relatively higher cost compared with conventional level measurement technologies.

Economical

The Micropilot FMR30B radar level transmitter uses 80 GHz technology for continuous non-contact level measurement. It features guided setup wizards for easy installation, commissioning, and operation. Bluetooth wireless remote access and an on-site color touch display provide convenient operation. With Heartbeat Technology, the device enables on-demand online verification and self-diagnostics, reducing process downtime. Its compact design allows installation in confined spaces. The Micropilot FMR30B is designed for liquid and solids level measurement with a maximum measuring range of 30 m (98 ft). It is ideal for basic applications in water and wastewater, mining, mineral processing and metallurgy, food and beverage industries, and various utility applications, including open basins, river monitoring, sewer systems, pumping stations, open channel flow measurement, IBC containers, storage tanks, silos, stockpiles, and pneumatic conveying systems.
