Endress+Hauser Micropilot FMR51 Technical Information page 7

Micropilot FMR51, FMR52
Endress+Hauser
Output
The Micropilot is commissioned by entering an empty distance "E" (=zero), a full distance "F" (=span)
and application parameters which automatically adapt the instrument to the process conditions. For
models with a current output, the factory adjustment for zero point "E" and span "F" is 4 mA and 20
mA. For digital outputs and the display module, the factory adjustment for zero point "E" and span "F"
is 0 % and 100 %.
A linearization with max. 32 points, based on a table entered either manually or semi-automatically,
can be activated locally or remotely. This function provides a measurement in engineering units and
a linear output signal for spheres, horizontal cylindrical tanks and vessels with conical outlet.
Life cycle of the product
