Beam angle The beam angle is defined as the angle a where the energy density of the radar waves reaches half the value of the maximum energy density (3dB-width). Microwaves are also emitted outside the signal beam and can be reflected off interfering installations.
  • Page 17 Micropilot M FMR250 with PROFIBUS PA Installation Measuring conditions • The measuring range begins, where the beam hits the vessel bottom. Particularly with dish bottoms or conical outlets the level cannot be detected below this point. The maximum measuring range can be increased in such applications by using a top target positioner (see Page 15).
  • Page 18 Installation Micropilot M FMR250 with PROFIBUS PA 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 70 m (229 ft) for Micropilot M FMR250. To achieve an optimised Signal strength it is recommended to use an antenna with as large as possible diameter (DN200/8"...
