Installation Micropilot FMR20 HART • Avoid measurements through the filling curtain. • Avoid internal fixtures such as limit switches. • No signals are evaluated within the Blocking distance (BD). It can therefore be used to suppress interference signals (e.g. the effects of condensate) in the vicinity of the antenna.
