  • Page 13: Installation

    Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3 Mounting Installation 3.4.1 Mounting kit In addition to the tool needed for flange mounting, you will require the following tool: • 4 mm Allen wrench for turning the housing. Shortening probes Rod and rope probes can be easily shortened. This is necessary if the distance to the container floor or outlet cone is less than 150 mm in the case of a rope probe, or less than 100 mm in the case of a rod probe or less than 50 mm in the case of a coax probe.
  • Page 14 3 Mounting Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3.4.2 Engineering hints for level measurement in bulk solids and fluids The following installation instructions apply for rope and rod probes for measurement in bulk solids and fluids. Coax probes are suitable purely for measurement in fluids. They function practically independent of all installation conditions and can, therefore, be installed as desired.
  • Page 15 Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3 Mounting Other installations • Select the mounting location such that the distance to internals (5) (e.g. limit switch, struts) > is 300 mm over the entire length of the probe, also during operation.
  • Page 16 3 Mounting Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA Standard installation • Probes are mounted to the process connection with threaded connections or flanges and are usually also secured with these. If during this installation there is the danger that the probe end moves so much that it touches the tank floor or cone at times, the probe must, if necessary, be shortened and fixed down.
  • Page 17 Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3 Mounting 3.4.3 Special notes for bulk solids • In the case of bulk solids, as great a distance as possible from the filling curtain is especially important to avoid wear. • In concrete silos, a large distance (B) should be observed between the probe and the concrete wall, if possible >= 1m,...
  • Page 18 3 Mounting Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3.4.4 Installation in bulk solid silos Tensile load Bulk solids exert tensile forces on rope probes whose height increases with:: • the length of the probe, i.e. max. cover, • the bulk density of the product, •...
  • Page 19 Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3 Mounting Since the tensile forces are also heavily dependent on the viscosity of the product, a higher safety factor is necessary for highly viscous products and if there is a risk of cornice build-up.
  • Page 20 3 Mounting Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3.4.5 Installation in liquids tanks • When installing in agitation units, check whether a no-contact process (ultrasonic or radar) would be better suited, especially if the agitator generates large mechanical loads on the probe.
  • Page 21 Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 3 Mounting Installation in underground tanks • Use coax probe for nozzles with large diameters in order to avoid reflections at the nozzle wall. Measurement in corrosive fluids For measurement in corrosive liquids, it is possible to install a rod probe in a closed plastic pipe with a diameter of up to approx.
  • Page 22 3 Mounting Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA Mounting Location • Recommended distance B wall- mounted rope probe: ~1/6...1/4 of the container diameter (min. 100 mm/4", concrete silos: min. 500 mm). • Not central (2) in metallic tanks. • Not in the filling curtain (3).

    11 Appendix Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 11.4 Function and system design 11.4.1 Measuring principle The Levelflex is a "downward-looking" measuring system that functions according to the ToF method (ToF = Time of Flight). The distance from the reference point (process connection of the measuring device see page 12) to the product surface is measured.
  • Page 99 Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA 11 Appendix Output The Levelflex is initially adjusted at the factory to the probe length ordered, so that in most cases only the application parameters, that automatically adapt the device to the measuring conditions, need to be entered. For models with current output, the factory adjustment for zero point and span is F 4 mA and 20 mA, for digital outputs and the display module 0 % and 100 %.
  • Page 100 11 Appendix Levelflex M FMP 40 with PROFIBUS-PA Evaluation of the measurement: • The map must correspond to the course of the envelope curve (for rod probes up to approx. 5 cm and for rope probes up to approx. 25 cm before the end of the probe) when the tank is empty.
