Micropilot FMR20 HART Measuring principle The Micropilot is a "downward-looking" measuring system, which functions according to the time-of- flight (ToF) method. It measures the distance from the reference point R to the product surface. Radar pulses are emitted by an antenna, reflected off the product surface and received again by the radar system.
• No agitators • No buildup • Relative dielectric constant ε > 4 Contact Endress+Hauser for lower ε values Usable measuring range The usable measuring range depends on the antenna size, the medium' s reflective properties, the installation position and any possible interference reflections.
Micropilot FMR20 HART • The range under reference conditions is 25 m (82 ft) • Incorrect operation by unauthorized persons is prevented by means of encrypted communication and password encryption • The Bluetooth® wireless technology interface can be deactivated Signal on alarm Depending on the interface, failure information is displayed as follows: •...
The sensor' s Bluetooth® wireless technology communication can be disabled to increase the operating life of the battery.
