  • Page 15 Micropilot M FMR230 PROFIBUS PA Mounting Measurement in a plastic tank If the outer wall of the tank is made of a non-conductive material (e.g. GRP), microwaves can also be reflected off interfering installations outside the signal beam (e.g. metallic pipes (1), ladders (2), grates (3), …).
  • Page 16 Mounting Micropilot M FMR230 PROFIBUS PA Measuring conditions Note! • In case of boiling surfaces, bubbling or tendency for foaming, use FMR230 or FMR231. Depending on its consistence, foam can either absorb microwaves or reflect them off the foam surface. Measurement is possible under certain conditions.
  • Page 17 Micropilot M FMR230 PROFIBUS PA Mounting Measuring range The usable measuring range depends on the size of the antenna, the reflectivity of the medium, the mounting location and eventual interference reflections. The maximum configurable range is: • 20 m (66 ft) The following tables describe the groups of media as well as the achievable measuring range as a function of application and media group.
